0 character topic titles setting


I know, my issue titles need work.

Okay, I go to "Admin CP > System Settings > Forums > Topics, Posts and Polls > Topic title max length" - set that to 0, and I'm unable to enter anything into the topic title field when creating a new topic.

Surely this is a bug, 0 should make it not have a limit, by all conventions where we use 0 elsewhere in the settings.

Reproduced in ticket #801869

Granted 0 should behave differently, but this could potentially cause further confusion. The title column is only varchar(250).
>_<
You could just say that maximum allowed is 250 in the description and that will be in effect if it's set to 0.
Do we even need the setting? ;)

:rofl:
Lets remove the setting. It's a bit dumb. We can just limit it ourselves by the size of the DB field.
Hmm.

The minimum setting is 2 looking at the code as this is hard coded. I'll edit the explanation and fix the HTML issue.
