Textarea character counter not showing.

How to fix a missing textarea character counter in ChronoForms.

Overview

The issue occurs because the required JavaScript file fails to load due to an incorrect URL path.
Ensure the form is loaded within a proper article context and verify the Load statement uses the correct full URL or leading slash for the script path.

Hi bstrydom,

Please post a link to the form so I can take a quick look.

Hi bstrydom,

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) http://test.my_domain.com/libraries/cegcore/components/com_chronoforms5/extras/textarea_maxlength/jquery.maxlength.min.js

That URL is not the same as the one I would expect - it's going to /libraries/cegcore/ Please check the URL in the Load statement - it may need to have a leading / or to be a full URL.

Thanks for that advice Bob. It did have a full url or a leading slash. so I tried both but it is still not working. The full URL loaded properly so I left it on that now.

But it's not working😛
