Hi everyone,

I'm playing around with the forums on my server and I need to increase the length of the subject line for all the forums when someone is posting a message. I think it's default is 70 and I wanted to make it 85.

I've changed it in the database and on the form but it still cuts off the latter characters.

Any idea what I'm missing? I've looked over the inc's, etc. but I seem to be missing something.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks much!! :)

You need to edit the file post_message.asp and find where the subject is read in and change the value of the amount of data read in.

Thanks a lot, that worked great. I found a few other places after that but that got me going again.

Thanks again for your help.
