Hello,

I'm having trouble finding the php file that dictates maximum length for a label. Would anyone know what folder would it be in or what is the name of the file?

Thanks

Hello. There is not a limit set in the PHP file. It's in the database. In the table _dtregister_fileds, the field "label" is type varchar(255). You can change the type to increase the capacity of that field.

Thanks,

I increased the VARCHAR, but I'm still not able to input more text in the label box. Is a set row height or column size limiting that?

The reason I need to increase the label size is to accommodate two languages.

There was another limit within the code that I wasn't realizing was there when I initially replied. We removed that though for the 3.2.8 release we did yesterday. Update (needed anyway for security issue) and you should be good.
