Hello

I am currently using MyBB 1.8.3. I want to increase topic title length upto 180 characters to display long news titles.

I followed this below thread and edited maxlength to "180" and also executed the sql query.

But still i keep getting this error message.

I am using igame template. The master theme is igame and the child theme is also igame.

So anybody knows then it would be very helpful.
That worked most perfectly. Thank you so much.

Hi, I've edited the 2 files above to reach 100 characters, however a problem occurs when creating a new thread.
Words stop appearing once I hit 85 characters, is there another file I need to edit?

Whenever I click and hold to edit from the threadlist view I am able to get past the 85 character count, but not when creating a new thread.
Not a file, the input in the template if it has maxlength attribute.

I edited the file through FTP. How am I supposed to edit it to make it work?
not working
newthread template find
<input type="text" class="textbox" name="subject" size="40" maxlength="85" value="{$subject}" tabindex="1" />

Edit maxlength="" to the number you've changed in the database and files
