I just tested the module on a real site and it worked. I guess if there is some bug we should adds some forms of tests for it.

I can confirm this doesn't work for textarea summaries unless the parent textarea has maxlength enabled.

The $element['summary'] does get passed to maxlength_pre_render but the $element['summary'] array doesn't contain any maxlength settings.

This sounds a bit similar as #2798903: Maxlength only for summary field?

The issue is encountered only on text with summary fields. Normal text fields are supported.

Title: Nothing shown on node add/edit form » Character count not displaying for summary if maxlength is only applied to summary, not parent field.
Status: Postponed (maintainer needs more info) » Closed (cannot reproduce)

I've updated the title for clarity.

I tested this though and the character count is showing for a summary when the maxlength is only applied to the summary and not the parent field.
