[Plugin: Contact Form 7] Text Area Max Length

I was wondering the same thing. I would like to make the Text Area boxes smaller than the default size. The optional settings for “cols” and “rows” when you generate the tags do not seem to work.

EDIT: I’ve already tried editing textarea.php, changing the the # of rows from 10 to 5 for the default value. Doesn’t seem to make any difference.

Just found this, it works.

Thanks for the link, I will need that. Anyone w/ ideas on limiting the number of characters entered though? Thanks,
