Thank you for the database reference !
Sounds like something fun to do after done with day-job (nothing to do with PCs, except paying some bills ...took a quick look (scrnshot attached) and see 125 character reference, now maybe just need to figure out how to work with it ?
It is very helpful getting these little bits of info about the workings of MyBB, so at least can decide where to go from here with this learning process.
May need the additional characters to help the user audience be able to navigate the site, but on the other hand, may be able to keep it shorter.
At least you have given a choice.
Ps: Also looks like where 'templates' are stored, have been trying to figure that out too.
Found the 'varchar' setting, changed the number of characters and it worked !
