Creating a Text Mask Field for Users. was created by VanguardAppraisals
My company is currently using LimeSurvey Version 3.23.4. We have a question that requires users to type in like XXX-XXX-XXX. X could be numbers or letters.

Is there a way to create a simple text mask that includes the format below including the hyphen in between:

xxx-xxx-xxx


If there is a way, how would we implement that into the system. We tried downloading a third party j-query type plugin, but it is not working and the plugin manager is not recognizing it. Is there a simple way to do a special format?

  $(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){ 
    $('#question{QID} input[type="text"]').inputmask({
      'mask': '***-***-***',
      'placeholder': '_',
      'removeMaskOnSubmit': false,
      'rightAlign': false,
    });

the plugin manager is not recognizing it

The LS plugin manager is for LS plugins, not for third party plugins.
Help us to help you!
  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).
