Good morning, I am going to do a new form and I need that an input field could be only uppercase character when I use it,  both for form and content types and list and search types. 

How can I do it, please ?

Best regards, Louis

THis lugin only checks if input is uppercase and blocks save until it is so. To convert letters you could use beforStore php plugin and use this function

Hi Klas, thanks, it is much for me, I am not very expert.

I know that there is a way in JS that I can insert in the section STUFF of the field. 

Please see also later topic where terveg give me some suggestions about this issue. Truerly, in this topic I had another problem that solved Randy.

Now problem is different, I need to insert data directly in uppercase. Have you any idea about istruction to insert ?

Many thanks, Louis

Hi,

validation plugin will force users to insert only uppercase characters. Is this not good enough?
