Back-office custom form field editing#299

I have 3 custom form fields:

  1. Github username
  2. Host account number (phone number)
  3. Reason for needing a license

People always enter 2. incorrectly. They either add their personal number instead of the host/work number, they will forget to add their country code, they will add unnecessary formatting, etc.

I have a custom firebase function and a whole other database to correct these numbers because I cannot just simply update them from the back-office/dashboard.

It is imperative for me to be able to update the custom form information and not the end-customer to prevent abuse of the licensing system.

If this was implemented then there would be less imperative for the regex validation feature request.

thanks

In my case I ask people to provide their username (for the product that they bought my plugin for) in a custom field. When they activate my plugin in that product I check that the licensekey and username match with what is registered on purchase in gumroad.
Lots of people enter an incorrect username in the custom field and aren’t able to unlock the plugin.
