I'm trying to make a post, but I get this error. I edited the title a couple times, but I'm not sure exactly what is wrong
I'm having the same issue.
I am able to post links, but if I attempt to post a regular text post:
When I attempt to copy / paste, it automatically leaves a large gap in the title, and then it tells me that it is unable to post due to invalid title.
Could you please copy and paste the exact title you tried to use? Thank you.
Title as attempted:
I've got a road trip planned in the not too-far future. It'll be about 2800 mi/4500 km. I'm pretty prepared but I'm sure I'm overlooking some things. I'd love to hear your tips and recommendations; your holy grails!
I also retried this right before I replied to you, and I got the same error
I see the issue. Lemmy currently has a max post title length of 200 characters by default. This is enforced server side. I would argue that the server should be returning a more specific error message since the current one is very generic.
I don't want to hardcode a limit on the client since I think this limit can be changed server side.
The client does show a character counter once your title goes past 200 characters so at least you can tell how long the title is.
Oh thank you. I wondered if it was something like that but I thought I saw longer post titles. Sorry for wasting your time, but I do appreciate the response nonetheless
I was trying to make a post into asklemmy.world but I got that error.
I was able to make a post into this community the exact same way; search the comm, navigate, create post
If the error is being generated on Lemmy’s side, then it may be because of the title either containing only whitespace characters or the title having newline characters in it (maybe from copy/paste?).
