In the "Comment settings > Submitted by Appearance > Submitted by text:" field you can only enter so many characters. ATM I have: [comment-author-name][comment-mon] [comment-d], [comment-yyyy] which works great. But I needed to add a class to the first span and couldn't b/c the field was full.

Should this be a instead of an input field? Just a thought.

forget to use code block...currently this is what i have:

<span><a href="[comment-author-homepage]">[comment-author-name]</a></span><span>[comment-mon] [comment-d], [comment-yyyy]</span>

but want it to be this:

<span class="author"><a href="[comment-author-homepage]">[comment-author-name]</a></span><span>[comment-mon] [comment-d], [comment-yyyy]</span>

We don't have #maxlength, so it apparently defaults to an undocumented 128. You should be able to type beyond the end of the box.

I just committed a fix to increase the length to 255.

Before I go any larger (textarea), I need to consult with someone else because I see a potential problem.

It will be in the -dev roll up at midnight GMT. I have a pretty good suspicion that there will be a new release on Wednesday as a result of something this issue triggered.
