Does anyone know if there’s an add-on that would allow the template to check the field it’s about to display to see how many characters are in there? So I could check the count and display it slightly differently if there’s a lot of characters vs a few?

If not, I might just have to program a little script on the front end with javascript to add a set of classes. Maybe that wouldn’t be SO bad.
