I'm using UBB 6.5. I'd like to increase the length of my "Custom Registration Field # 2:" How do I do that? In simple terms please... I'm not very good with big words. laugh

Thanks!

The length of the text allowable or width of the text field?

Here is for the text allowable...Let's see if this works (for customfield #2):

For both "ubb_registration.cgi" and "ubb_profile.cgi" find:

Code
[/code]Below that you will see the numbers for each field.  You will notice "80" characters limit for the "customfields".  Just change it to the higher number you want.   

----------------------

Now open "public_register_form.pl" and find:

Code
</pre></div></div>Change the "80" to the number you specified in "ubb_registration.cgi".<br><br>--------------<br><br>Open "public_edit_profile.pl" and find:<br><br> [code]
Then change "80" to the number you've specified in "ubb_profile.cgi". Clear cache and you're set.
