In the ACP > SQL Reduction > Recent Topics there is an option:

Forum To Exclude
Please, insert the IDs of the forums to be excluded in Last Messages Box (you can separate by comma each forum ID).

Can anyone please tell me how to increase the number of forum IDs you can insert here, as there are loads more I want to exclude than the space in the text box allows?

open and edit this line

<input class="post" type="text" maxlength="255" size="40" name="last_msgs_x" value="{LAST_MSGS_X}" />

in templates/common/board_config_queries.tpl

you have to check if that field on db support more than 255 chars

ps: do you have more than 70 forums to exclude :shock: ?

I can't find a database entry called 'last_msg'

Is it called something else, and what should I change the db entry to so that it can support more than 255 chars ?

P.S. Yes I have 228 forums to exclude. And yes, I have loads more forums altogether.

No, sorry. I'm not going public with my site for quite a while yet.

My forum's make-up isn't the issue here. Can someone help with this please?

If you read my post, you'll see that I did, and asked for help with the above. Can anyone clarify what I should be looking for and where?

PM your site and we will help you

if you change this 255 with 500 for ex


works?

if don't explore your database on phphbb_config table and check this field

last_msgs_x

Try to add them there directly

Thanks for clarifying what to change, Zuker. It seems to have worked.

you are welcome.
