![]() In Auto-Link Options, if I enter a URL longer than 255 characters, and then I save it, upon re-opening it I see that only the first 255 characters of the URL have been saved.
If I use a URL longer than 255 characters, such as the following one: Code:
http://www.example.com/1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 Code:
http://www.example.com/1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 Then I found an instance of "255" in gal_gdic_editor template, so I changed that also to "999", but no success. Is there a way to increase this URL length limit? Thanks. Last edited by JustaQuestion; 10-16-2009 at 04:54 PM.. |

![]() I've searched I think all the php files for "255", but found none. I'm running out of ideas. Is there any way I can modify my installation to remove the 255 character limit for URLs?

![]() ... some affiliate links are longer than 255 characters, and in some cases the affiliate ID, which is close to the end of the URL, gets removed. A person who clicks such link does get to the intended product page, but the affiliate may not get credited if a sale has been made.
Any assistance with this would be hugely appreciated! |

![]() Using phpMyAdmin go look at the gal database table and there you can change the url field from varchar(255) to whatever you prefer.
