Text in ChronoConnectivity shorter than chronoform

Hi Chronoengine πŸ˜€

I have a question to ask about Chronoconnectivity.

My guests at my site input a lot of text in a textbox under "tell me more about your apartment". But under ChronoConnectivity, the result shown is usually shorter than what the guest wrote. I wonder if I can solve this...

The code at Chronoconnectivity looks like this.
  <div class="form_element cf_textarea">
    <label class="cf_label" style="width: 180px;">θ―·ζθΏ°ζ‚¨ηš„ζˆΏε­ tell me more about your apartment</label>
    <textarea class="cf_inputbox" rows="3" id="text_17" cols="30" name="text_17"></textarea>
    
  </div>

Hi PurpleKnight,

I don't see anything in the ChronoConnectivity code that would shorten the result. What kind of database field is it being saved in? If it's VARCHAR(125) for example, this would reduce the length - especially if there are UniCode characters included.

Hi Bob,

How do I go about and check this?

VARCHAR(125)

And how to correct it to make the result looks longer?

Thanks a lot, Bob! πŸ˜€

Hi PurpleKnight,

You'll need to look at the table structure in PHPMyAdmin or something similar.

I logged in to PHPmyadmin. That text field looks like this.
Text_17, VARCHAR(255), utf8_general_ci.

So what should I do next? πŸ™‚

Hmmm... still having this problem. Also check at the information at my Chronoform. Looks like when the guests submit the info, it has already been cut. Any solution to this? :mrgreen:

Hi PurpleKnight,

Still the same answer - use PHPMyAdmin to change that column type to TEXT
