Hello, we are using Discourse v3.0.3 and have the `max_post_length` is set to the default maximum value of 150,000 characters. However, several of our technical experts who provide solution responses from the field are encountering error messages that exceed the 150k limit.

If I try to increase the settings, I get the following error:

> `max_post_length: Value must be between 0 and 150000.`

This issue has become problematic for us as the content relies heavily on interlinked parts with anchors. Splitting the content into multiple posts would require significant time and effort to rearrange everything accordingly. Moreover, it would negatively impact on the UX if readers have to navigate between multiple posts to access the complete information.

Is there a way to increase the value or disable it altogether?

TIA!
