How to increase length of forum title
 

Hello,

As the title say, " How to increase length of forum title " ...

Actually i need to add some HTML codes and the forum title is limited to certain no. of characters, so how can i increase that ??

It is set at size="35" in the page source. The page is admincp/forum.php. So, you can change it in there on line 38:
function print_input_row has a default of 35, so pass something else:
Just don't change it to anything larger than 100 since that is the database type - varchar(100)

Lynne i couldn't find this :

Where should i look for it ??

You don't need to know where that line is, but it is in includes/adminfuctions.php if you need to see it. I was simply showing you what the function accepts as parameters. You need to modify the other line in admincp/forum.php to pass something in the fifth spot so that the default of 35 is not used.

I don't know why you would think it's a good idea to have a longer title tag :rolleyes:

Sometimes it is important if you have titles in a foreign language because a single character may take four or so 'spaces' instead of just one.

Actually i wanted to add image tags in front of forum title but the with default length it was not possible.Finally i made it to work!

See an example :

That looks nice, however I did remove the link to your board since this is a PG-13 rated site and that site is not. :D

ah, I never thought of that. Thanks Lynne! :)
I see, it looks good :)

To allow longer titles, all you need to do is change the column in the database. No code edits needed.
