So, I can not edit the posts in my thread on Adventure Module Creation Best Practices. Is there a limit on the length of a single post? I've tried in Chrome and IE. Post #1 pops up in the editor, but I get errors that my post is less than 3 characters long when I try to save it. Trying to edit the later post nothing appears in the edit box.

I thought maybe it was a Java temp file limit, but my java temp files are set to several GB.

Other ideas? Or work arounds?

EDIT: No problem editing other posts, like this one, just those two.

There is a character limit, that the website should report when you come to submit the edit. Try removing some of the text and seeing if you can update it that way.

If you are getting the 'less than three character' error, click on 'Go Advanced' and edit the post in advanced mode and it should be fine.

So, going advanced didn't work (though I've used that trick before). What I was able to do though was to delete everything, add in a couple words, save the post and then go back to the post and edit as normal.

Thanks all :)
