Identifier	#1403
Issue type	Minor issue (breaks specific functionality)
Title	Large quantity of usergroups may cause forms to only partly submit
Status	Completed
Handling member	Chris Graham
Version	9.0.9
Addon	General / Uncategorised
Description	PHP defines a maximum number of form fields, and large numbers of usergroups will cause this to be exceeded on the add/edit of category screens. Composr should detect when too many fields are used and inform of the problem, but does not in this case. Additionally, we should workaround the problem as far as is possible, via a Javascript workaround.
Steps to reproduce
Funded?	No

A hotfix (a TAR of files to upload) have been uploaded to this issue. These files are made to the latest intra-version state (i.e. may roll in earlier fixes too if made to the same files) - so only upload files newer than what you have already. Always take backups of files you are replacing or keep a copy of the manual installer for your version, and only apply fixes you need. These hotfixes are not necessarily reliable or well supported. Not sure how to extract TAR files to your Windows computer? Try 7-zip (http://www.7-zip.org/).
