Thread: 4.1.0 Phonenumber field dont show 0

  1. #1

    4.1.0 Phonenumber field dont show 0

    So, i really want to use the new phonenumber field in 4.1.0 but i cant use it because it removes the 0 if i use 0 at the start of the phonenumber.

    Tried to change the field to text but that makes the field broken. Are there any way of making it display the 0 if a 0 are used ?

    (0589) 0786945 will look like this (589) 786945. Theres got to be a way around this.

    Are Sweden the only country that can have zeros as a start of a phonenumber ?

    I can confirm that it is not working with a zero in the beginning of the number.

    i was told that this bug is fixed in the new version but seems is not....
    Romania has all numbers with 0 as first number so we will have to wait for a real fix of this bug or still use the text fild wich was a "temporary solution till 4.1".

    Hi @ All

    i think the better solution is the country phone code instead of 0 - e.g. for Germany +49 .
    I will work on this solution for automatic fill in this country codes in the first field.

    Best regards

    @Steffen the zero we are talking about is the area code and in Sweden we use that all the time and it is common practise.

    Thats right and in germany also the same.
    If you call in an local area e.g. sweden with +46 it will the same as 0.
    You can also call as +46 271 123456 it is the same as 0271 - 123456.
    In germany for example we have 0375 but i can also call with +49 375.
    There will be no problems. Its an international standart.
    You can test it in your country.
