Category Description Length

edited October 2011 in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8
I'm attempting to put some HTML into my category description field, but I'm getting an error saying that my description is too many characters long. Is there somewhere in Vanilla where I can increase the category description character limit? Thanks!

    @erriccarl yes you will have to change it in there.

    to be on safe side you can have it as 1000.
