PKP Bugzilla – Bug 7205
Text fields have maximum lengths shorter than their database field type
Last modified: 2012-12-17 12:55:02 PST
There are a few fields on the profile and registration forms (last name and URL for example) that have maxlength values of 90 when they are represented as varchar(255) fields in the database. They could be made longer.
Scheduling against 2.3.7 for consideration sooner.
Last name fields are actually 90 characters long. However, I've lengthened the URL field to match the DB. (All apps + lib-pkp; ojs-stable-2_4 and master.)
