The field "name" in the tiki_preferences is currently limited to 40 characters.
This may be appropriate for English speakers, as soon as you start developing german-language Wiki Plugins, it becomes awfully little. For Example:
You are trying to write a plugin named
__ inventarisierung_details (this string has 24 characters).
As soon as you try to configure this, it becomes
__ wikiplugininline_inventarisierung_details (this one has 41 characters)
and fails horribly.
As MySQL does not actually block a given size for a VARCHAR field (see MySQL Documentation, Section 11.4.1), they can be longer without sacrificing disk or memory space.
Thus: Please update the database schema to accept tiki_preferences.name to up to 255 characters.
To help developers solve the bug, we kindly request that you demonstrate your bug on a show2.tiki.org instance. To start, simply select a version and click on "Create show2.tiki.org instance".
