About Document Objects can we have them changed to text or longer in the database?

How about a snippet that made the change?
Something along the lines of:
$myQuery = 'ALTER TABLE' . $userTable . 'MODIFY comment VARCHAR';
Thanks Bob! I am just wondering about the reasons to why limit them down.
if (MODx way == Your way) use less limitations;
I’m not a MySQL expert, but I think the memory usage of VARCHAR fields is 2 * the setting rounded up to the next multiple of 4. So all that memory is allocated whether you need it or not (times the number of users). I suggested a snippet to make the change (which could go in the repository) because I’m not sure everyone would want all that extra memory allocated.
Ok, that makes sense!
