System Field Sizes

(2 posts)

  1. Hi,

    Machform Rocks!!

    I am using it for a customer to create online surveys. The problem I have run into
    is field entry size limitations.

    Here is a sample survey : http://solomonstoolbox.com/semlevsurvey.php

    As you can see Im using the check boxes to do most of the survey, but the system limits the Text that can be entered (to create any given question.

    Is there a place I can increase this capibility?

    Thanks in advance!

  2. Hi,

    It's seems you are using previous version of machform (1.2) . In this version check box text limited to 255 character. You have 2 option to fix that problem :

    1. Upgrade you machform to 2.x version
    2. Change machform "ap_element_options" table data type.

    If you consider yo change table data type, you can try to following this steps :
    - go to MySQL administrator/control panel
    - run this query in there

    alter table ap_element_options modify <x>option<x> text;

    It will change data type to "text" and make sure you replace <x> tag to back ticks character
