Hello community.
I see that in the text area where users can place/edit their signature, they have no control over the number of characters / words that can be placed, the user can place as many characters/words as they want:
Which results in the user being able to place very long signatures:
How can we limit the number of characters/words in the signature area?
Thank you in advance for your help.
I didn't find an option for it
only with the Addon "wpForo User Custom Fields"
but you can enter the desired value in the wpf-includes / functions-template.php at Line 1635.
$length = apply_filters('wpforo_signature_length', 0);
$signature = wpforo_text($signature, $length, false, false, false, false);
$signature = wpautop($signature);
replace "0" with the value limit (character)
But after a forum update you have to do this again
Even html codes for images or urls in the signature can be shortened and thus no longer displayed
or use css to limit the content of the signature
everything that goes above the specified height is hidden
#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpfl-4 .wpforo-post .wpforo-post-signature {
overflow: hidden;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
max-height: 100px;
}
