Alert Component max char limit

Created on 25 October 2022, about 2 years ago

Problem/Motivation

For a site with both Spanish and English content, Spanish content will tend be 30-50% longer than English. Some alerts that are originally written in English do not have enough space within the current 255 character limit for their Spanish translations.

Steps to reproduce

Try and enter more than 255 characters into the Alert Body or Alert Title.

Proposed resolution

Upgrade of the character limit of the Alert Component's field_alert_body and field_alert_title to be at least 600 characters. There may be an argument for setting these to type:string_long instead of just bumping the character limit, but 600 currently serves our purposes.

Remaining tasks

update field_alert_body
update field_alert_title
