Troubleshooting

How do I fix the " _ERROR_COMMENT_LONGWORD" error?

Scenario:
"Some URLs are very long and if users post them in a comment on my blog, they sometimes get this "_ERROR_COMMENT_LONGWORD". How do I fix this problem?"

Solution:
This will require a small core hack. Open /nucleus/libs/COMMENTS.php and find the following code:

   // don't allow words that are too long
        if (eregi('[a-zA-Z0-9|\.,;:!\?=\/\\]{90,90}',$comment['body']) != false)
        return _ERROR_COMMENT_LONGWORD;

Change the number 90 to the maximum number of characters you want to allow.

Similarly, open /nucleus/libs/ADMIN.php and find this code:

		// intercept words that are too long
		if (eregi("[a-zA-Z0-9|\.,;:!\?=\/\\]{90,90}",$body) != false)
			$this->error(_ERROR_COMMENT_LONGWORD);

Again, change the number 90 to the maximum number of characters you want to allow.
