Hello

My registration site form currently has 36 fields. I need to add two more, but it won't allow me. When I click save the field simply returns to the list on the right.

Not sure what the issue is.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

When going over 40+ fields some servers require you to add or edit your php.ini file with the following line:

;set max input
max_input_vars=2500

You might try 1000 first and see if that fixes the problem.

Also make sure you are using php5.3+. Some servers require you to load it in your HTACCESS file, e.g.

# Use PHP 5.3
AddType application/x-httpd-php53 .php

I had the same problem.  Set the max input to max_input_var=3000 in the php.ini file and restart the server and problem solved.

Hi all,

the problem could come from the PHP configuration, but often it's that the database has some limitation.
You must optimise it by setting the good storage format.
By default, SEBLOD store in VARCHAR(255). So if it's just for an integer, it's better to use INT(x). You must do that for all your fields in the form.


Best regards.

I do not have access to php.ini but i'm added in .htaccess file: 

php_value max_input_vars 3000 
php_value suhosin.get.max_vars 3000 
php_value suhosin.post.max_vars 3000 
php_value suhosin.request.max_vars 3000

for me it's working.

Best regards
