Forum - Limit word number

by Beatriz Rojo - Monday, February 25, 2019, 7:44 PM

Hi there,

I might be confused, but I recall the forum having a setting where, as well as the maximum number of attached files, also the maximum length of a post (words or characters) could be set. Am I wrong? Does this option exist?

Thanks!

Beatriz

Hello. I don't think you can set a maximum number of words as a limit but you can specify a wordcount in the section "Attachments and wordcount" so that the number of words is displayed. You might be thinking of assignments where the online text option is used -there you can set a maximum number of words in "Word limit" in the Submission types section.
