Can't confirm:

I've notice on the tabel _menu_types , the title is varchar(48) type.

No menu item, I mean menu title

No menu item, I mean menu title

Sorry, my fault.

confirmed for menuType.

can be changed from varchar(48) to varchar(255) manually on db, without broken something ?

@mariantanase it is true that the menutype title is cut - due to database structure. (no idea why we have this restriction, but it is an identifier).

For publishing your menu, the title of the module ist displayed, not the menutype. So it should be possible to shorten your menuType name?

Unfortunately, I have many menus with the title longer than 48 characters. 48 limit is too short for me...

The title of the menu types is only shown in backend when selecting or filtering menus by menu type. It has no meaning in the frontend. Therefore I would just suggest to use shorter titles e.g. by using abbreviations for words which are common for many menu types.

If we now increase it so it fits your needs, the next user will even want longer titles, and at the end we will end with mediumtext.

That would not really make sense.

So my opinion is to leave it as it is, but that’s only my personal opinion, others may be different.

I'll notice that.

Thanks!
