**Pro Version**: <https://add-ons.org/plugin/input-masks-for-elementor-forms/>

**Input Masks for Elementor Forms** is a must-have add-on that forces users to enter data in a specific, predefined format. Stop dealing with messy database entries and start collecting perfectly formatted phone numbers, postal codes, credit cards, dates, and tax IDs instantly.

By providing real-time visual formatting cues as the user types, an input mask significantly limits human error, reduces cognitive load, and dramatically improves the quality of the information you collect. 

Whether you need a classic US Phone Number layout `(999) 999-9999` or a complex custom format, this plugin gives you total control over the exact character structure of your Elementor Forms fields.

== Features ==
* **6 Built-in Standard Formats:** Get started instantly with pre-configured masks for US Phone, US Phone + Extension, SSN (Social Security Number), Tax ID, Zip Code, and Full Zip Code.
* **Ultimate Custom Formats:** Write your own custom mask formulas (e.g., `9999-9999-9999-9999` for Credit Cards or `dd/mm/yyyy` for localized Dates) to match any global standard.
* **Interactive Visual Cues:** Ghost placeholder characters gracefully appear in the input field to visually guide users through exactly what they need to type.
* **Strict Validation:** Only allows users to submit the form if their input strictly matches the defined mask, guaranteeing 100% clean data collection.
* **Conditional Logic Ready:** Works perfectly with Elementor's native conditional logic. Show or hide masked fields dynamically.
* **Seamless Integration:** Adds a native "Input Masks" field type directly within your Elementor builder. No coding or complex shortcodes required.

== Why You Need It ==
Inconsistent data entry costs businesses time and money. If you have ever struggled to read an unformatted phone number or lost a lead because of an invalid email/zip code structure, Input Masks solves the problem at the source. It ensures accurate data collection, protects your CRM, and creates a "frictionless" user experience.
