[SOLVED] field label of checkboxes

[SOLVED] field label of checkboxes was created by bwagenknecht
Hi,
is it possible to increase the field label size of the checkboxes (the text is cut at displaying it on the profile). Or maybe there is the possibility to somehow substitute a shorter label with a text somehow.

Thanks a lot!

CB doesn't limit checkbox label size. Most likely your Joomla template is doing that. Switch to default Joomla protostar template and see if they're still being cut off.

It seems to be a problem of the database (mariadb). The text is truncated. Would it be ok for the cb application to change the field label column to latin instead of using utf8 or would I then have problems when updating to a new community builder application.
Thanks a lot for your time!

Mariadb is untested. Use MYSQLi with a collation of utf8mb4_unicode_ci. Can not advise you on any other setups as that is the only tested setup. Anything else is untested and entirely up to you to make work. Best I can suggest is use language strings if you're not able to change databases and translate those language strings to whatever length of text you need. You can translate your custom language strings using language overrides shown below.
