Hence, if your group name is longer than 108 characters it will throw a DB exception for exceeding the 128 characters field for the group name. To avoid this, I've added the following code to function group_delete($groupid, $shortname=null, $institution=null, $notifymembers=true): //Daniel Parejo $delete_name = $group->name; if (strlen($delete_name) > 100) { $delete_name = substr($delete_name, 0, 100) . '(...)'; } //End added code update_record('group', array( 'deleted' => 1, 'name' => $delete_name . '.deleted.' . time(), //modified code 'shortname' => null, 'institution' => null, 'category' => null, 'urlid' => null, ), array( 'id' => $group->id, ) ); db_commit(); This solution is not perfect since it will fail if two groups that are not different in their 101 first characters are tried to be removed in the same time instant. Still, way better than before, though I think a more solid solution should be implemented.
