Daniel For an edit post form I need about 120 custom fields. Unfortunately, there seems to be a limit somewhere. After I added the fields (by editing the wp_postmeta entry in the database because it would be too tedious via the UI), various things go wrong. e.g. I can't switch between tabs in the form edit screen and on the frontend the text for the submit button disappears and there are only about 80 fields shown...

WPUF saves the form fields in the meta. So seems like you have too many fields in the form and it exceeds the meta_value limit in MySQL.

Hi Tareq,

the character limit for meta_value is 4,294,967,295 or 4GB (232 – 1) of characters (LONGTEXT).

When I manipulate wpuf_form (overwriting with serialized content) everything works fine until I change the form settings through the UI. Therefor I think it’s a User Frontent Pro bug.
