Index: cannot be created because the max message length

[SteveZand]

Code Select Expand

Fulltext index
Index: cannot be created because the max message length is above 65,535 or table type is not MyISAM

After searching for this error on the forum, I found this solution:

https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=50893.msg360181#msg360181

Do it manually:

Code Select Expand

ALTER TABLE smf_messages
ADD FULLTEXT body (body)

Is this all I have to do to let the forum use full indexed text search or are there some other steps I should execute?
