Hi. Would it be possible to limit users to the ammount of text they can enter into a comment? Hardcoded atleast until something better is in place? I think 100 characters would be plenty for a simple comment.

I am rolling this module into FBSS 3.x and will be including this feature when that happens. Until then though, this module is in bugfix-only mode just because I don't have more time to put into it.

OK Cool, thanks for the confirmation :)

Any news on this matter?

My laptop was recently the victim of a spill and I won't be able to do much (if any) development until I get it back in 2-3 weeks. But this is still on my to-do list.

I'm delaying this at least until after a 3.x RC

This feature would be great indead!

I found the code

$size = variable_get('facebook_status_size_long', 40);
echo theme('facebook_status_form_display', $account, $size, $view);

in thread http://drupal.org/node/847802, but I can't get it to work... Is there already a way to do this programmatically?

That code is for the 2.x branch of FBSS and only works for the status update form (which has a built-in setting that lets you limit the number of characters allowed in statuses). This issue is about adding the same kind of setting to comments on statuses.

Sorry that I went off thread! - Thanks for your answer, I'm moving my question to a new issue.

I'm not putting any new features into the 6.x-3.x or 7.x-1.x branches at this point, so delaying this until 7.x-2.x.
