Meta Box Text Limiter

Meta Box Text Limiter helps you to limit the number of characters or words entered for text and textarea fields.

Settings

Assume you have a text field with the following settings:

[
'title' => 'My Text Field',
'id' => 't',
'type' => 'text',
],

And you want to limit the number of characters for that field to 40. Doing that by adding 'limit' => 40 to the field:

[
'title' => 'My Text Field',
'id' => 't',
'type' => 'text',
'limit' => 40,
],

If you need to limit by words, just add 'limit_type' => 'word':

[
'title' => 'My Text Field',
'id' => 't',
'type' => 'text',
'limit' => 40,
'limit_type' => 'word',
],

That's all!

Note that this extension works only with text and textarea fields.
