Hi Guys,
Was wondering if there's a way to make the signatures a bit longer. I've installed UIE forums and when a user's signature is displayed, if they have more than 2 1/2 lines it trims the rest of the signature. When in user account you can add as much as you want to the sig but it doen't display all of it in the forums. Is there a way to allow this and make it a bit longer?
Cheers

yes you can, but it requires you to alter the SQL field definition for that field. I just had to do this myself-- I found out that the SIGNATURE field in the USERS table is set to VARCHAR (255) which is the max size for that type. I changed mine to TEXT and it seems to be working fine.

Thank you so much for your help. I really appreciate it. Looked everywhere and couldn't find how to do it but now it sounds so simple. Thanks again :-)

Yep all fixed now and it works fine, thanx again. I've spent ages looking for an answer. Pretty new to drupal but am picking it up pretty quick, just didn't know anything about where to even find the code for the sigs lol. All good now. :-)
