In our test forum you cannot enter a large tiltle (more than 24 chars). In addition while Greek language appears perfectly while on the member side you only see "chinese" when in control panel mode. Anyone to help?

If you are referring to the topic subject then 50 characters are allowed.

If characters are not being displayed correctly edit the file includes/setup_options_inc.asp and change the character encoding for your forum. However, once you change this you will need to edit and re-save any data you have entered so it is saved under the new character encoding.

In our case subject cannot exceed 26 characters no matter what (that includes the spaces between words). Is this normal? I mean in Greek of course. In english 50 chars it is.

If you are using Greek then you need to edit the file includes/setup_options_inc.asp and change the character encoding for your forum.

This is due to the default UTF-8 not having good support for Greek Characters.

Sorry not sure what encoding you need to change it to, but if you search these forums others using it with Greek have done the same with success.
