Question field size

[UncleSteve2]

I suspect this has been asked before, but my searches have failed, sorry.

The field size for new questions seems to be set at 255 characters, where can I increase this size please? Relates to this page - http://www.faq.mydomain.net/admin/index ... =editentry

I've looked in the database, and change a few likely fields, but I still can't add more than 255 characters in the question field.

Thanks in advance for any help

Found it

File mydomain.net/faq/admin/record.edit.php

around line 221

Code: Select all

    <input name="thema" id="thema" style="width: 720px; height: 30px; font-size: 24px;" value="<?php if (isset($faqData['title'])) { print PMF_String::htmlspecialchars($faqData['title']); } ?>" maxlength="255" /><br />

Is there a way to format the question field to display the text as html rather than one line of text please?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

if you want to save HTML in the question field, it will be stripped. What kind of HTML do you want to add there?

At present, if I enter my question as....

Line 1
Line 2
Line 3

It will show as...

Line 1 Line 2 Line 3

I would really like to retain the formatting, so that the question prints/shows as...

Line 1
Line 2
Line 3

How can I achieve this please?

Thanks

Steve
