| Hey, I was wondering what is the character limit in one blog ? & how can I check it if possible ? . I have found two but old topics with the same question, but with no reliable answer >> Blog Limit? Post limit in the blog section? |

| The limit is 65535 characters. The first thread you linked already gave you the answer. |

| @goten_ssj3 Thank you, yeah but it was old topic & I wanted to make sure so.., also is it possible to check the limit in the blog ?! |

| You can't see it in the blog entry directly. But some text editors (for example Notepad++) show you the length (total characters). So you can copy paste your blog entry in the text editor and check there. |

| Thank you both for answering my inquiry :) |

| According to one of the posts linked above, the character limit is 65,535. But it seems like the limit is lower than that. I reached the character limit on one of my blog posts so I checked using 'Word Count' in Microsoft Word (53,261 characters with spaces) and online word/character counters (53,317 or 54,258) and found out that I could only input no more than 53,000-54,00 characters. |

Did you use BBCode in your post? You have to count these characters too. |

Can you send me the entire post in a PM? You can upload it for example here: https://pastebin.com/ Then I can check it. |

IridescentJaune said: Thank you. But I'm afraid I couldn't send the entire post/original post as I already edited it a couple of times to fit the character limit. I just tested it and pasted a dummy text with 70,000 characters into a blog post. When I edited the blog post and checked how many characters were left, it was again 65,535 characters. I checked the character count with Notepad++. So either there was a problem with the character count of the tools you used or there is a problem with BBCode but that's something I can't really test myself. So my suggestion is that if it happens to you again that you have less characters then you send me the thing so I can try to figure out what's wrong. Edit: I did the same thing with the dummy text but added 20 paragraphs. Now it was cut off after 65,307 characters according to Notepad++. I put the same cut off post into a word count tool and it showed me 65,231 characters. So it seems that different tools count it in a different way and that line breaks have an influence (maybe other things too). That's as far as I can check things though so I need to forward this to the devs. In the end the best solution would be to add a counter that shows how many characters are left so that no one needs to use external tools or just ends up with a cut off text. (We probably won't get this soon though because there are other priorities) |

Hopefully, that wouldn't happen again. |

I'm not sure if it was like this in the past because in all my tests it showed the same number if I remember correctly. |
