Re: FAQ Truncation?!
Well, if the limit is not lifted, in the case of my own truncation, I'll just be editing the later Posts to include the mising information, cramming as much as can be crammed into each one and moving the rest down to the next.
I just want to know what to expect.

Re: FAQ Truncation?!
How about making the FAQ into a HTML-File, upload it in the scenario section and link to the download? When you click the link wouldn't it open a new browser window with the FAQ?

That could work. Here is the gist of the problem. I checked the database and the post is in the database exactly how it appears, cut off. I can re-import some of the Posts from the old system to see if that would work. My guess is either a strange character cut off the import or there was a timeout on a specific post.
My goal would be to get the post back to normal, I hate having lose ends like that.

Re: FAQ Truncation?!
The Posts may have exceeded the maximum size for the database variable that stores the post text. What is the maximum size for the post variables?

I checked it is a TEXT type in the database and it has a larger limit. No I figure the import script has a limit or it hit php's timeout value.

Re: FAQ Truncation?!
I think Slick still has the whole FAQ and could update it. We just have to wait until he can catch up with this link.

I posted a reply to the FAQ thread which had the latest Version of the FAQ. It was truncated again and it appears this new UBB can't handle the length.
Mephisto, short of breaking it up into several Posts, do you have any suggestions?
