Field Regex Potential was created by edmundcheong
For fields we are able have a regular expression to control the format of the data.
By any chance is there a way to preview the format of the regular expression in the field itself?
Is there a way if we put in a regular expressions (/d{1}-d{1}/ for example), the user would just enter the digits and the "-" auto populates after the first digit?
Another example to clear my question, we know that visa numbers are 0000-0000-0000-0000. Is there a way for the uaer to enter the digits only and the cb field populates the "-" by degault?

We have no inputmask feature. The regex is just the validation and not an inputmask, which is what enforces the format you're wanting during typing. You'd have to use CB Auto Actions and a Code action to insert jQuery to force an inputmask on your field to do that.

By any chance, are you able to provide an example? I am assuming, the code should trigger beforeprofileeditdisplay? Or after?

I would use the onAfterRegisterFormDisplay and onAfterUserProfileEditDisplay triggers to insert your jQuery. CB comes with an inputmask jQuery plugin. You should be able to utilize it for example as follows.
Method: jQuery
Code:Plugins: inputmask
The jQuery plugin CB currently has for inputmask is as follows.
github.com/RobinHerbots/jquery.inputmask
Method: jQuery
Code:
$( '#FIELD_NAME' ).inputmask( '9999-9999-9999-9999' );The jQuery plugin CB currently has for inputmask is as follows.
github.com/RobinHerbots/jquery.inputmask

if i understand it correctly, I should crete the following auto action:
Published: Yes
Title: test input mask
Type: Code
Triggers: onAfterUserProfileEditDisplay
User: Automatic
Access: Everybody
Conditional: [name] NOT EMPTY
Method: jQuery
Code: $( '#cb_fieldnametest' ).inputmask( '9999-9999-9999-9999' );
Plugin URLs: robinherbots.github.io/jquery.inputmask
Plugins: inputmask
Somehow the field is still the same.. anything that I am missing out? as for the fieldname in the code, should it be the column name in the table?

You don't need to specify Plugin URLs. Just the Plugins parameter as that jQuery plugin is included with CB. I'm not sure I understand the condition though. Name should never be empty. You also need to include the onAfterRegisterFormDisplay trigger if you want it to work on registration in addition to profile edit.
