I created a text field with a select or other both as multiples or singles. I then set the maxlength of the text field to 1000. Some of the data I'm receiving is still over that but regardless every time I submit the data I get "Value must be a string at most 255 characters long." even though I've defined the maxlength to be 1000.

The display has the maxlength attribute and 1000 value for the html and I can enter in 1000 characters, I'm just not able to save the value. Also the database table is the correct value VARCHAR(1000).
