Topic: Character counter in textarea fields repeats many times
Expected behavior Typed and remaining available characters are displayed as text is typed into the textarea field
Actual behavior Typed and remaining available characters are displayed many times below the textarea field. First and Last occurence display dynamically the remaining characters to type. The middle occurence shows always zero characters typed
In this case, the form is within a modal.
Hi,
I have checked it and we have already fixed this issue in release 3.6.0. So you have to update your MDB package to at least 3.6.0 and the issue will be gone. Of course I advise you to update to the latest 3.10.2 :)
Keep coding,
Dawid

Thanks Dawid. Is there a procedure to safely upgrade MDB to 3.10.2 without affecting the whole project?

Here you have the list of changes https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/standard/getting-started/changelog/. There was no major update with braking changes, so the update is as easy as replacing old MDB files with new ones. Keep coding :)
Well, the code is posted at https://mdbootstrap.com/snippets/standard/sergiojaviercaz/3702549 Thanks !

Are you sure there is no other piece of code responsible for this form? Because I can't reproduce your issue. Everything looks fine https://mdbootstrap.com/snippets/standard/d-wajszczuk/3705567. Do you use the latest (3.10.2) version of MDB? Maybe there are some steps to that I need to take in order to see this problem?

The only other code involved is a js (jquery) script from which the modal is opened. $("#messageMLModal").modal(); If it gives you a clue, I see that if I open the same modal many times, instead of appearing 3 times, the character counter appears 6, 9, 12 times, that's multiplying by 3 each time the modal is opened.
