Tags Limit. HOWTO extend tags per item?

For some reason, when i save a product with a lot of tags, it deletes most of the tags and just displays some. How to fix it...

 

In number of tags to show limit in the tags settings i put: 1000000000000000000000000000

 

only 15 tags appear.

 

So i can have unlimited per item but it doesn't seem to work.

there is a limit of character in DB its 255 i think. You have to increase it. Run this query

ALTER TABLE  `bx_store_products` CHANGE  `tags`  `tags` VARCHAR( 1000 ) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT  '';

but please check you didn't changed any names in that table. Update this if necessary. Carefully :D

Good luck 

so much to do....

well you can use text or longtext if you like. It should not cause any issue.
