Limit of Post Size? (FIXED)

Post: # 1902Post Meedan »

For the last few days, it seems to be that if I type over a certain amount, the preview will show nothing, a blank post. So, if I try to post it, it says that I haven't typed anything.

Is there now a limit, or is there something else wrong?

Ha, with me it is the same.

Meedan, we're being shut down...

No, there shouldn't be any limit to the post size, but I recently upgraded the forum software, and the problem definitely stems from the upgrade -- it's a necessary upgrade. I verified the same problems that you describe and have just reported them to the forum software developers since I don't see the problem to be on my part. So please bear with that for a while.

If you are unhappy with the current restrictions, I can put heavier ones -- 10 characters at most and 1 post per month per user. :) The aim would be to cultivate only the best pearls of wisdom...
Do you REALLY practice meditation? If your REALLY do, do you practice a GOOD method? Are you sure this is REALLY so?

I found the actual post length limit -- all is good as long as you type no more than 966 characters.

It seems that we are hitting a Universal Law here, people. I proclaim this bug the "One Nine and Two Turned Nines Bug".

Problem Fixed

Post: # 1913Post VeskoP »

Meedan, Yothu, the problem has just been solved with the immediate help of my hosting provider. Since security-hardened stuff is running on the server, it needed additional configuration to work fine with the new version of the forum software.
This forum's hosting provider is an outstanding company run by a theoretical physicist (Erik Kangas) doing work at Fermilab among other things. I just talked to him about the book and wanted his opinion, and he said he'll probably review it later. He's a serious researcher -- you can see his papers here (http://erikkangas.com/pubs.html) on studying the structure of vacuum, molecular biophysics, etc.

A single post can now contain as many as 65 thousand characters. Happy?

If you don't mind, I would be very eager to hear his opinion of the book also, if he gets round to reading it.

Even if it's a negative review, I trust. :wink:
