Well, i create a module to help test see here.
Then i tested and watched on database, all of those params are saved in an table column of type "text", so there is a limitation of 2,147,483,647 characters (not pretty sure maybe this depend of kind of db ?). Maybe you reached this limit ?

@anamikakush your problem is that nothing gets saved or the editor fields are not saved?

@dgt41 Thanks for your reply, If we filled all the value except Editor then all value gets saved but if we fill the value with editor then nothing gets save. So in short if we filled all the field value then nothing gets save.

I would like to mentioned that i am adding long data in editor, Currently, i am using the data below for the all editor,

@AteDev

Thanks for your quick reply,
In case of limit issue the specific field value should not store.
But when I try to save the data with long description ,none of field value is stored. Each field get blank after save while it all work fine if I change the editor field type to textarea type.

Please advice ,I need to store the data in separate table or something else can work.

Thank you in advance.

@dgt41 Thanks for your suggestion.

We have checked and followed the instruction but issue still doesn't get fixed. Still all the field are getting clear.

When we save field tab value 1 by 1 editor then it works properly but we need to do same process by 5 times to store 5 editor field value. i.e we have created 5 tabs in one module and each tab have 1 editor and when we save 1 by 1 value then it works properly but when we fill all tabs editor value and try to save in once it is not working. Please advise.

@anamikakush what is the mysql filed for <field type="editor" name="long_desc_1" label="Enter Full Description" description="Enter Full Description" width="300" filter="safehtml" />

If that is VARCHAR can you change it to TEXT or MEDIUMTEXT or LONGTEXT (you have to decide upon the data you are trying to store) for all the editor fields and report back?

@dgt41 Thanks for your response.

I have changed it to LONGTEXT and after filling all the fields details when i click on Save button then i got the below error:

1118 Row size too large (> 8126). Changing some columns to TEXT or BLOB or using ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC or ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED may help

Please help me to resolve this issue soon.

@dgt41 We are just entering about 10,000 characters in all the 5 editor field, I have changed it in LONGTEXT and SEMI TEXT as well but still not saving the value.

Please advise.

I have tested the module that you supplied with the latest joomla staging and it works perfectly with the data that you said to enter in all 5 tabs

One possibility is to check your server error logs for any error referring to max_input_vars

This is not an issue with the core of Joomla
