Hi Lynne,

Thanks for the answer, but would you please be more specific on how to get to the table "forum" with the field "title"?

Thanks

If you aren't familiar with modifying your database, then you should get someone else to do it for you. If you do the wrong thing, who knows what would happen and I know I don't want to be responsible for you doing something to your site.

It cannot be done via vBulletin. If you have access to MySQL, it can be done there. Ensure you make a backup of your DB prior to making ANY manual change to the database.

Thanks for your concern... Yes, I'm familiar with the database ... and trust me, I'll not blame you for any wrong doing. So, would you please tell me how to get to this "forum" & "title" settings.

Many thanks

Okay... thanks!

Well, you would use whatever method you use to modify your database (phpMyAdmin? ssh?) and then alter the field "title" in your "forum" table. I'm not sure how to describe this... if you have modified your database before, then you should know what to do to modify a field in a table.

Thanks to kyrenator for having this question raised. And largely, big thanks to Lynne and Biker_GA for pointing me to the right direction.

Just want to update if someone have the same issue then please take a look at the attachments for detail changes that I made to the database which fixed the "long forum title" in Forum Manager.

1. I'm using PHPmyAdmin then click under the forum links to open the forum's database
2. it should be listed as shown in the snapshot
3. then select "forum" and click on "title" field with the "change" (pencil icon) to edit
4. after making the change from 100 to 200 character, then click Save

That's all! And by-the-way, I took a risk of not backing up my database prior to do this, but seems like there is no problem afterward and now I can pretty much name the forum title as long as I want.

Again, Thank You all for your help!

You guys are great!
