I tried to make char limit 150k, but I’m limited to 99k: [image] Our use for this is that we have in-game bad behavior reports posting chat logs from the game. Some games are longer than others. I have no problem eating the space if it starts to get big. For example: [image] We have a spoiler …

I just threw together a super quick and dirty plugin for you @dylanh724 : https://github.com/jomaxro/discourse-plugin-site-setting-override . This will override the max post length maximum value to be 150,000. Install it like a normal plugin: Install plugins on a self-hosted site

[image] codinghorror: I suggest you get users to post enormous logs at a third party service like pastebin. Or clip the logs to just the relevant parts. How come, though, if it seems like simply a number? 80% of most logs are under the amount specified, but 20% are not, causing issues. It’d b…

Here’s the magic number. config/site_settings.yml main type: group_list list_type: compact default: "" allow_any: false Not sure why it’s exactly 99k, but you could write a simple plugin tha…

[image] gerhard: Not sure why it’s exactly 99k, but you could write a simple plugin that overrides the max value. OH! My bad, I missed this post. Thanks~ can I just change this value directly at discourse/discourse/blob/master/config/site_settings.yml#L456-L459 ? Will it break if I update? I …

[image] dylanh724: can I just change this value directly at discourse/discourse/blob/master/config/site_settings.yml#L456-L459 ? Will it break if I update? I very strongly recommend not modifying the files directly. It will either break updates, or more likely revert to the default every time…

[image] jomaxro: A plugin to override a site setting should be a single file, nearly as easy as modifying the file. [image] I think I’m just going to change the file and not update for a few versions. This is pretty much the opposite of “nearly as easy as modifying the file” O_O

[image] dylanh724: not update for a few versions If you choose to do that (and I still don’t recommend it) - please keep an eye on the Commit log for security related commits. They’ll start with SECURITY: - you don’t want to skip installing those.

Oh, wow! I didn’t expect that. Thank you so much!!

[image] dylanh724: Oh, wow! I didn’t expect that. Thank you so much!! You’re quite welcome. It’s a good example plugin to have - I will do a write up in Customization > Plugin eventually.
