Maximum description length for mods(?)

[Xarrian]

Hey!

 

I just had the following problem with my mod description (the long one, not the 350 characters categories description!) on Skyrim Nexus (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/19281/):

 

I wanted to add something in the middle of the text, but when I saved, about the same amount of lines disappeared at the end of the description. And it happened more than once, so it also seems reproducable.

 

Is this a wanted limitation or is it a bug? The thing is, I'd like to write more about the mod, so everything one needs to know can be accessed via the respective Nexus page, but like this, I really have a problem listing all its features and general support properly! :(

 

Many thanks in advance!

That is an extremely long description. I assume you might be hitting the limits of the field type that we've set in the database. You might want to think about trimming it a little bit!

Alright, thanks for your fast response! Now I know it isn't some sort of bug!

 

Yes, I know, it is pretty long, but the mod also comes with a lot of features - First, I wanted to describe it in every detail, but then I already trimmed it (If I would go for a full documentation, I guess it would be four times as long, if not longer). Well, whatever the case, I guess I have to make an external Documentation, then, and make the one on the page more general so I can get space for the bugfixing and compatibility section.

 

Once again, thansk for the answer! :)
