How do I change the character limit for the membergroup name field?
I'm needing to do a group that has two two letter names, and an image. It cuts off, showing that it is set too low for what I need.

SMF 2.0.4

Branko.

PhpMyAdmin> membergroups table > Structure> group_name >  varchar(80) and change value

Thank you.
I had forgotten more than I thought I did...LOL

Thanks for the quick response, too. :)

but WAIT...   you ***DO NOT*** want to add HTML like an image tag into a group name.
That will screw MANY MANY MANY things up on your forum.

I just have it for one membergroup that has only one member. Will have only one member.
I needed to do it, as could not get it to show the second membergroup image.
I've done it before with the whole lot of the groups, and the only issue I had was havimng to deal with invisible group names...LOL

I think it'll be okay with the one I did, but if have better idea, please let me know. Here is the site for you to see:

Look at Jean-Luc Picard, the Main Admin account. That's the only one that will have the image in the name.

as I said... bad idea.

If you need multiple badges, there are several mods that allow you to do this

Stars and Badges, the one I used in the old site, is outdated and has many errors. I worked almost 2 weeks on getting this site back up. Any ideas and help would be most appreciated.

That's for post count badges. I need for 2 regular non-post count groups to be shown.
However, that one might help out on another site. :)
