| Apr 26, 2018 at 18:00 | comment | added | Rob Orr | Don't know that it's the config form specifically, that's just what I was looking at as I started to look at the various form IDs so it's likely something else. | |
| Apr 26, 2018 at 15:00 | comment | added | Kevin | Yeah, for that you should probably have a debugger like xdebug so you can see things without doing prints. But why do you need to modify the config form? Isn't this a user facing change? | |
| Apr 26, 2018 at 14:25 | comment | added | Rob Orr | Ok - that helped, thanks Kevin. I've got it in a custom module, but it looks like I'm running in to problems because the form_id I'm targeting is views_ui_config_item_form and the description field is edit-options-expose-description. I'm running in to an AJAX error when I'm trying to print_r: An AJAX HTTP error occurred. HTTP Result Code: 200 Debugging information follows. Path: /admin/structure/views/ajax/config-item/myview/page/filter/title StatusText: OK ... Any thoughts on how to get around that error so I can see the variables? | |
| Apr 26, 2018 at 13:50 | comment | added | Kevin | In a custom module or theme you can use hook_form_alter to modify any forms in Drupal before they are rendered. You will want to check the form id to make sure you are modifying the right form (views exposed forms). Then you could set the form field(s) to '#maxlength' => 255. However in the code you posted, that isn't for your exposed filter field, that is for something else. api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules%21system%21system.api.php/… | |
| Apr 26, 2018 at 12:19 | comment | added | Rob Orr | No - can you tell me more about how and where I would implement that? | |
| Apr 26, 2018 at 11:36 | comment | added | Kevin | Did you try hook_form_alter on that exposed form field? | |
