Enlarging a field / column was created by waveydavey
I have been asked to lengthen the questions.title from varchar(20) to varchar(60), which I have successfully done.

However, the input field for it on create / edit question is size="20" maxlength="20", and I am not familiar enough with the framework to know what to edit / how to enlarge this input field.

I would be grateful for any pointers you may have.

Thanks in advance
David

Not a terribly useful response!
We are integrating LS with an in-house system, and coding question types into the title would be useful at our side. All I need is to be able to alter input to maxlength="60" - is it really going to be that hard ?

I just do not know where to look.

I would think you could do that with a couple of characters.

Or adding a Question attribute.

I have a plugin where i add an attribute to replace question code when you choose to show Question code in settings.
An old one with a lot of other specific part.

Maybe if we know why : we can propose different solution …
