## 常见问题

### Does this plugin require Gravity Forms?

Yes, this plugin is specifically designed to work with Gravity Forms and requires
it to be installed and active.

### Can I set different character limits for different fields?

Absolutely! You can set individual character recommendations for each form field,
or leave some without limits.

### Does this restrict user input?

By default, no. The plugin provides visual recommendations to guide users. However,
you can optionally enable **strict character limit enforcement** that prevents form
submission when limits are exceeded, with clear error messages showing current vs.
allowed characters.

### Can I customize the appearance?

Yes! The plugin includes a built-in CSS editor where you can customize colors, fonts,
positioning, and more to match your theme perfectly.

### Is this plugin translation ready?

Yes, the plugin is fully internationalized with proper translators’ comments and
supports all WordPress translation methods.

### Does this affect site performance?

No, the plugin is highly optimized with minimal resource usage. It only loads necessary
JavaScript and CSS when forms with character counting are displayed.

### Can I use this with multisite installations?

Yes, the plugin works perfectly with WordPress multisite installations.

### What happens if I deactivate Gravity Forms?

The plugin includes dependency checking and will safely deactivate itself if Gravity
Forms is not available, preventing any errors.
