Hi all,

I tried to configure the "VT: string" setting to increase the character length of a String Property field, but if I add the code that I reported in my previous message to my LocalSettings.php I get the following error:

Exception caught: $ maxLength must be a positive integer.

Actually 4000 is a positive integer ... Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thank you very much!

Claudio

Hi Tom,

Indeed I asked the same question before in wikimedia-l and was advised to post it here too for safety :-)

If I understand you correctly, I need to add the following line in my LocalSettings.php file (let's say I want to put 4000 characters as the new limit):

$wgWBRepoSettings['string-limits'] = [
    'VT:string' => [
        'length' => 4000,
    ],
];

Is this correct?

Thank you very much!

Claudio

Hi!

Similarly to your question to wikimedia-l about labels you want to
change a setting from the "string-limits" section the Wikibase options
[1]. However, this time you want to tweak the "VT:string" setting.

Hope that helps!
Cheers,
Tom

Hello and nice to meet you!

I have a (hopefully) simple question ... In my MediaWiki / Wikibase instance [1] I have a set of Properties whose data type is String, which are used to store the translations of the text of epigraphs, see eg. [2]. These fields appear to have a length limit of 400 characters. Is there any way to increase that limit?

Thank you very much!

Claudio
