Is it possible to increase the no. of characters for the course short name as some of our course short names are long and the field only allows a certain and limited no. of words.

Thanks

Hi,

open the edit_from.php file in course folder and increase the maxlength in below mentioned code.

$mform->addElement('text', 'shortname', get_string('shortnamecourse'), 'maxlength="100" size="20"');


If you don't want to change in core files then you can use the moodle customscripts feature to modify the course form.

Thanks.
