Title: Text/Note/Annotation Maxlength rule is unnecessary Status in Mahara: Confirmed Bug description: Mahara: 17.10.1 OS: Ubuntu 16.04 DB: Postgres Browser: FF When inserting a base-64 encoded image into a comment on a form, the user is presented with the following error: 'This field must be 8192 characters long.' This rule validation is not really required because the DB field that it inserting into is a 'Text' type. Which basically means it's almost unlimited. Postgres 7.1+ does have an upper limit at 1 Gb for a Text field. Mahara supports Postgres 9+. I do think it's safe to remove the maxlength rule for the Text, Note and Annoation fields. Please let me know your thoughts.
