[1.10.x] Short Name field Size

1 Jul 29, 2008 23:00    

My b2evolution Version: 1.10.x

This question has been asked before but for a different version of B2E and the file names involved have changed.

I need to expand the number of characters in the Short Name field from the current value of 12 (?). Does anyone know how to change the limit in B2E version 2.4.2?

Thanks,

Dave

You need to change the length of blog_shortname field in evo_blogs table

Then replace 12 in inc/collections/views/_coll_general.form.php (line 54) to match your changes

$Form->text( 'blog_shortname', $edited_Blog->get( 'shortname', 'formvalue' ), 12, T_('Short name'),

I think it should work then, not tested

You are correct! I made the two changes, one in the table and the other in the PHP file, although I was certainly apprehensive about changing the MySQL Table. But, it all worked fine.

Thank you!
