I have a cb field that is textarea and it is cutting off at 255 characters. Any ideas how I can fix this? I need the text area to hold paragraphs of info. Thank you for any help,TK
Did you change a text field to a textarea field in database? That's the only way for this to happen. A text fields column type in _comprofiler is varchar(255) and a textarea fields column type is mediumtext. Please check that the column type in _comprofiler is correct for your field. You should also be able to run CB Tools and it should be able to find this out and fix it for you.

Thanks for the response. After some digging - I checked the _comprofiler and it said textarea also ran all the tools a few times - I think something just got messed up because finally I just created a brand new field for text area and that worked just fine. I guess just a fluke - sorry to bother you, tk
