Bug #78149

Updated by Thomas Hohn over 7 years ago

In the moderne publishing business and probably in other areas the  
 definition of caption (https://github.com/TYPO3/TYPO3.CMS/blob/master/typo3/sysext/filemetadata/ext_tables.sql#L8) and copyright (https://github.com/TYPO3/TYPO3.CMS/blob/master/typo3/sysext/filemetadata/ext_tables.sql#L14) as varchar(255) is to small.  

 In addition filemeta data from for instance iStock and other image providers 
 are often langer than 255 characters. 

 We propose to change the definition to a text instead since this extension  
 is also required when using Solr as search engine. 


 <pre> 
 CREATE TABLE sys_file_metadata ( 
	 ... 
	 caption text, 
	 ... 
	 copyright text, 
	 ... 
 ); 	
 </pre> 

 With kind regards 

 Thomas
