-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 David,
There is a function in utils.php named getUserMaxTimes that gets the max value for each of those values from all of the user groups of which the user is a member. The text you mentioned is then generated using those values in the function named AJeditRequest in requests.php. In 2.3.2, the text starts at line 2406. Use the User Lookup part of the site to look up the user you are testing with to see all user groups of which that user is a member. Then, look at the max values for each group in that list. The maxextend time you've listed below is 30 minutes. That is why only 15 and 30 minutes are in the drop down box. For the case you've listed, the user is allowed to make a reservation for an initial max duration of 4 hours. Then, after making the reservation, the user can extend in 30 minute increments up to a total of 6 hours.
