How to you lift the words limit in an article?

I notice the blog post truncates auto after a certain point. How do you remove this limit?

not sure what your referring to??? i have never seen a limitation that isn’t self setup.
In your case it might be that the custom field you have is limited in the setup of that custom field - those i suspect this is not the case.
I suspect that you template code is restricting the word limit when you have a blog list of multiple articles. As otherwise the length of this list page would be huge???

If so i would suggest a plugin like “word_limit” has been used in the appropriate template.

I meant that there is a limit to how long the article can be. How can that limit be increased?

You’ll need to edit your SQL table to change the data type to accommodate more data.

MySQL TEXT fields have a limit of 65,000 bytes. If you insert anything larger than that in to a normal TEXT field mySQL will silently truncate your data without telling you (meaning software checks are probably a good idea). MEDIUMTEXT will store 16 million characters and LONGTEXT can handle over 4 trillion, but this information does not appear to be readily available in the online mySQL manual

hmm…how do you make the changes in mySQL?
