Word Count
Add minimum and maximum word count limits to Gravity Forms text fields, blocking extra words as users type.
What it does
When you need form responses to stay within a specific length, Gravity Forms alone doesn't enforce word limits. Word Count fills that gap by letting you set a minimum, maximum, or both on text-based fields.
As someone fills in a field, extra words are blocked in real time — whether they type or paste. You choose the limits per field, so each field can have its own rules.
It also works alongside Gravity Forms Pay Per Word if you want to charge based on how many words someone enters, up to your set maximum.
