Hello, I wonder wether it’s possible to set a max length on real names? There is one for usernames, but not for real names. (Or did I miss it?) When they are displayed in posts this could be very long, especially when someone has a title also.

There is no max length setting for real names that I am aware of. If a user tries to enter a name that is longer than 200 characters it will produce an internal server error. Very long names get truncated in the UI, so they don’t break the layout. It might be a good idea to have a name length setti…

Should we add rudimentary protection for this @eviltrout ?

That’s an interesting error message. This fixes it and makes it work a lot more nicely: https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/ee17138c0f09cc9621fde3355bd32ca1b0b0c3e2

Thank you for adding this! Would it also be possible to set the maxlength in the admin cp just like with the username?

Not at this time. I recommend enforcing it on your forums by contacting users who use very long names and asking them to change them.

추가해 주셔서 감사합니다! 사용자 이름과 마찬가지로 관리자 화면에서 maxlength도 설정할 수 있을까요?
