This looks good, but it's not a change we can implement on sites with existing data, it appears because: FieldUpdateForbiddenException: field_sql_storage cannot change the schema for an existing field with data.

For now, I've worked around the issue with CSS (e.g., hiding overflow).

Hi Mike, But smth is wrong here. The maxlength module is especially used in cases when there is data in the fields. It should have worked. On 10 Apr, 2015 10:38 AM, "Michael Widner" notifications@github.com wrote:

Hmm... it could be my DB is screwy. I've been doing a lot of development lately, so I may have hosed something. I'll come back around to it shortly and see what's up. Thanks for the clarification.
