Is there any built in validation for the fields?

Can the filter radius distance be set to miles?

No. There is no such a parameter.

re validation: the usual stuff really - tel number is digits and spaces only, url format, postcode format, no weird stuff in name or address fields etc

I think the option to set a regex against fields (same as the text field etc) would be good

re: radius distance: what is a km anyway? :-)

quite a lot of the world uses miles. I suppose it would be quite easy to put a switch on this.

There is REGEX validation for contact information field. Also for URLs as you have already noticed. But no validation no address fields I think.

I added this article to docs

thanks for update

ok with the regex for additional fields

I must validate phone and postcode for new entry to specific patterns.

no problem, I expect I can do it with a bit of js
