Community Documentation

A great place to add links to YouTube walkthroughs, external documentation, or a demo site (use DrupalPod!).

You may continue to put additional information below here, if there are other things you think people need to know about your module!

Moving this over to the Drupal.org customizations queue as it's seen some review & additions and I think we can do this!

One small nit - “… and manage my input formats?” If I recall correctly, these are “text formats” in the Drupal admin UI.

The first 200 characters of this will be shown in the Project Browser.

We can align this with what is shown for project browsing on Drupal.org itself. That limit is currently 600 characters.

It looks like Drupal is counting characters, not bytes, so we don’t have to worry about 200 bytes not being a lot for multi-byte characters.

I added the proposed resolution to a branch and created the MR for it.

This is now set on production. Thanks all!

Good call. I jumped straight into code forgetting about the default value via UI.

Automatically closed - issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.
