Default Signature Limit

Don't know if this has been brought up before, but is there a tiny, tiny chance we can get the character limit in our sigs upped a little?

Nothing huge, maybe 50-100 characters.

I thought the limit is 400 characters.

The following errors occurred when this message was submitted:

1. Your signature can not be longer than 400 characters.

Isn'y the Public Profile the place to list all ones latest purchases from supa cheap? All to often PP is almost devoid of information accompanied by a maxxed out signature.

Does the software allow provision for some more expansion of PP's? I think it would be more beneficial to allow a PP almost like an AFF homepage.

Keeping the signature as short as possible is just showing consideration for those poor souls still stuck behind a dial up modem.. :

My point was that if stuff like knob painting is crucial to someone, we can have a spot for it other than a recurrent one.

On the subject of sig's, can we have them appear only once per member per page? Some might remember how it was on .com. Makes scrolling through so much quicker.. specially considering some have sig's as long as a essay.

seeing as its top of the list, here is how to do it ;)

Quote:
In your "postbit" template ( note that if you have the legacy postbit enabled, edit the "postbit_legacy" template instead )

Find :
[php]<if condition="$post['signature']">[/php]

Replace with :
[php]<if condition="$post['signature'] AND !$vboptions['shownsigs'][$post[userid]] AND $vboptions['shownsigs'][$post[userid]] = true">[/php]

It's ok to be waaaaaaay too lazy on this matter. Please.. leave as it is now. Looks neater, cleaner and much quicker to read through. Maybe Admin's and Mod's could be given an exemption as most of 'em are FFAU related.
