Force the 24 characters limit for the text button


Hi all,

someone can help me to force the 24 characters limit for the text button?
I need to insert a longer text in it.

Thanks :)

@Guendalina - this from a user: maybe you put the longer information in the description field on the form and use shorter text on the button??

Hi @Guendalina thank you! That screenshot was super helpful. We don’t have a way to change the character limitation for this button, but I’m happy to share the feedback with our product team!

Thanks you for your suggestion but I need to use the text in the button.

I saw some examples in the web with longer texts so I think that in somehow it’s possible… but I don’t know how.

Hi Litz,

thanks for your answer. I reported last year this same feedback to the Typeform support and they told me the same thing. What surprise me is that a so great marketing tool have a similar limit.

The text button could be so decisive that I don’t understand why there is this limit.

24 character aren’t enough if you want to use the “speakers buttons” like:
“Yes, I want to book my free session with you, thanks!”

In Direct Response Marketing you use the buttons in this way.

I hope the product team decide to take to off it soon.

Have a nice day :)

User here and totally agree. In marketing, it’s so important to have the space for a good call-to-action. This is even something we a/b test for conversions. I’m surprised that there’s such a short limit.

Hey folks

Those screens to generate the embed code are here to help you quickly configure the Embed code for your typeform.
But you can always customize it by implementing it yourself.

For example this is the code for a button triggering a popup form 
 

<button data-tf-popup="<form-id>">open form</button>
<script src="//embed.typeform.com/next/embed.js"></script>


The text could be as long as you want; there is no limit.
And you can personalize the look and feel of this button using your own CSS.
