Longer text and text size limit in form about metamagik HOT 3 CLOSED

Plus 1 vote for text area. I'm trying to record "Recognised Risks" and "Measures to Address Known Risks" against each task. Ideally this would be in a table format to match up each risk with how we are dealing with it and be able to add as many of these pairs as required like comments are added. Until this is possible having text areas where we can add one risk per line is an acceptable interim.

added textarea.

feature added. textarea is now a field "type" and markdown will be applied on the summary/details page of the task, but not when editing. There is no min/max limit.

edit: I say there is no limit, but Kanboards Schema for metadata value will provide a limit, i.e.:

https://github.com/kanboard/kanboard/blob/c238a3f10841d958e9ff8e6f2a8cceb9797f61a9/app/Schema/Mysql.php#L609
https://github.com/kanboard/kanboard/blob/c238a3f10841d958e9ff8e6f2a8cceb9797f61a9/app/Schema/Sqlite.php#L454
https://github.com/kanboard/kanboard/blob/c238a3f10841d958e9ff8e6f2a8cceb9797f61a9/app/Schema/Postgres.php#L499

so, Mysql DB will have a 255 char limit, but Sqlite will not, Postgres will.

You could change the type for Mysql or Postgres to remove the 255 char limit. I could have added a Schema update to do so for those DB's, but, MetaMagik was never a tool intended to change Kanboards native use of Metadata, it was simply to utilize it. So, I will leave that change up to people who wish to remove that limit, to do so, themselves.
