I can now update an authorized value code using the database, but I can't add or edit using the staff interface as the form entry's maximum length is 80: <input type="text" id="authorised_value" name="authorised_value" value="" maxlength="80" class="focus" />.
Fixed (In reply to Marcel de Rooy from comment #4)
You go from 80 to 255. At some point that is too low again. We should imo go to a TEXT type: A TEXT column with a maximum length of 65,535 (216 - 1) characters. One point: VARCHAR columns can be fully indexed. TEXT columns can only be indexed over a specified length.
Some versions of MySQL/Maria allow varchar up to 65535 - so we can increase in future as needed - this was the largest push without more work and sufficient for current needs -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
