put a limit of say 20 characters on the title field. that should do it.

i believe this can be done in the template "newthread" (you will also have to do this on "newreply" and "newpoll:"

(It would be sort of like this, i think?) The first line might be different... but just mess around with this for a bit and who knows? :nervous:

PHP Code:

if (postmaxchars != 0) {
        if (theform.subject.value.length > 20) {
            alert("Your subject is too long.\n\nReduce your subject to 20 characters.\nIt is currently "+theform.subject.value.length+" characters long.");
            return false; }
        else { return true; }
