I have searched the Forum for this answer without success.
 
QUESTION:
I am using v7.95 and wish to allow longer 'Forum Category' names - but I don't know what to alter to do this.
 
REASON:
I have placed html code in the Category name boxes to make them diferent colours, hence the need to have more characters available in the 'Forum Category' field name.
 
Can some one please explain (in simple terms)

You may need to increase the size of the field in the database that holds this data, then enter the data directly into the database by hand.
