I'm trying to create a Lay on Hands ability group, that heals 5 and can be used Paladin LVL x daily, like mentioned here:
https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?22793-Lay-on-Hands-Healing-effect&highlight=Lay+on+Hands

but the "Uses" box appear to only accept hard numbers. Is there a way to do this?

Also, how do I differentiate between a long and short rest? the option are only: Once, Rest, Daily. Is Daily the equivalent to a Long rest for 5e campaigns?

You need to hard code the use number so its something you should have players check whenever they level up. The "Rest" toggle will reset on a short or long rest. The "Daily" will reset at the end of a long rest only and won't update at the end of a short rest.

Also, check out the "complete package series" at the bottom of this link:

If you download these to your computer you can upload them into your fantasy grounds character folder and you can look at how most of the powers/abilities are coded.
