Hi,

I'd like to autoformat, both on the main individual form, on profiles and on import.

For instance, force the last names to always be in uppercase, the first letter of the first name to be in upper, the rest lowercase, the phone number to start with a +, the name of an organisation always to be in lowercase...

Is there already a hook for that ?

shouldn't it be added to the core (possibly as a param to toggle in and out ) ?

X+

This is something we have also needed - and preferably for Title Case for any text strings longer than 1 character in Address fields too, though no doubt someone will have an example where this won't apply

you should be able to modify the names etc by implementing the civicrm_pre hook for contact object and modifying the params

we currently dont have hooks for phone / email etc, but can consider adding them
