Any snippets around to drop into functions and limit the character count in replies and topics?

I don’t know how technical you are, this one does the opposite

function rew_min_length ($reply_content) {
	if (strlen($reply_content)<61) {
		bbp_add_error( 'bbp_reply_content', __( '<strong>ERROR</strong>: Your reply must be at least 60 characters.', 'bbpress' ) );
	}
return $reply_content ;
}

add_filter( 'bbp_new_reply_pre_content', 'rew_min_length' );

Thanks! I will see if I can play with that. My first guess is just changing <61 to >500

I tried to post as code….will try again. But this didn’t work.

function rew_max_length ($reply_content) {
	if (strlen($reply_content)<500) {
		bbp_add_error( 'bbp_reply_content', __( '<strong>ERROR</strong>: Your reply must be less than 500 characters.', 'bbpress' ) );
	}
return $reply_content ;
}

add_filter( 'bbp_new_reply_pre_content', 'rew_max_length' );

try >500 not <500

Ok that worked to stop the ability to submit, but didn’t print the error message.
