Just wondering if anybody could help me increase the character limit of the 'Extra Information' field in user profiles?
What is the limit that you found?
I?m asking you cauz i really can?t find an entry regarding limit on the file.
Try to open your "modules/system/users/userform.php"
Look around line 101, you?ll find
$bio_tarea = new XoopsFormTextArea(_US_EXTRAINFO, "bio", $bio_value);
Did you see, nothing regarding character limit.
But if you look a bit above, for instance around line 83, you?ll find:
$interest_text = new XoopsFormText(_AM_INTEREST, "user_intrest", 30, 150, $interest_value);
I tryed to put some values right after the "bio" on the line 101:
$bio_tarea = new XoopsFormTextArea(_US_EXTRAINFO, "bio",80,450, $bio_value);
update the system module and......nothing change
I guess that you must edit the class XoopsFormTextArea in order to get what you want. It seems that It has a default value.
Sorry It?s beyond my poor knowledge.
To the php gurus: please it was only a mind exercise, trying to find a simple answer. Don?t consider as anithing beyond that
