Hej there.
Is there any way to alter the error message when a user enter to many characters into a text area? Currently the message is as shown in this image
However the client would like it to say something like "Limit exceeded by X symbols" as they find the current error message to be confusing.
Kind Regards Mads Justesen
Hi Mads,
Yes this is possible. The text that is shown here is controlled by a Language file which you can override.
If you create a "user" language file by following the instructions here: https://our.umbraco.com/Documentation/Extending/Language-Files/
you can override the core language files.
To change this text in particular, you need to override the "textbox" area and the "Characters_exceed" value, the defaults can be found here:
