I'm now replying to you from Alexandrite - so yes, that was it :)
Never got a warning from Lemmy...weird.
Woo! I'll put the same 60 character limit on my login form then. Thanks for figuring this out with me!
It would appear the way it's setup with the hard character limit there's probably no good way for them to figure out if you were trying to input a longer password, since everything gets cut off at 60 regardless. Totally understandable though, not many people use that long of passwords.
The way I've coded such things is just to count the length of the string in the field and then do an if() to test if's greater than or less than a specific length. I'm surprised Lemmy doesn't do that.
Thanks are due to you, not me, for helping me figure this out :)
Hey I pushed some changes, including a 60 character maxlength. If you're self hosting the dev version you'll need to
git pull
,npm install
again and re-runnpm run dev
. The npm install is because I had to add support for maxlength to the text inputs which I import from my own UI library, and I needed to bump the version for that.
