Max char for a field

Max char for a field was created by rocky222
Signature field (for joomlaboard integration) is set for maximum 300 characters. Still, I'm able to type in and save signature that is way beyond 300 characters. CB or Joomlaboard bug?

Any one else care to take a look at this? Our site is suffering from lengthy sigs and they keep getting longer...

As far as the database tables go - both CB and Joomlaboard do not enforce limits when defining the signature field.

In the CB fields backend the sbsignature field has a maximum limit of 300 chars. Will check if this is enforced - if its not it is probably a CB related issue-bug.

Maybe you can test something similar directly for joomlaboard?

If its not enforced one thing you can try (on your own risk) is:

try using phpmyadmin and setting a maximum field limit for the signature field in the jos_sb_users table and also the same maximum field limit in the jos_comprofiler
