"key" in settings limited to 32

[Blesta Addons]

as the title , the "key" settings is limited to varchar(32)  .

is possible to make it more like 64 ? the limit here is related with any other aspect of blesta ?

why we need more ?

is some case we need to store some setting that is unique and sometimes is long , like

paypal_universal_payments_custom_field_1 , the limitation make the setting only for the first 32 char  'paypal_universal_payments_custom' .

best regards

I'd recommend using an acronym. These keys are meant to be short and concise. 64 characters isn't very short

like paypal_custom_1 small and you know what it is

i can even use pc1 and is done !!!

the request is not how i want to use my settings , the request was to make the KEY support more than 32 chars , that is .

also the maximum key to 64 will not affect any aspect of blesta working, it help other devs to make their own key settings as they want .

I understand the request for a 64-character key length, but I'm not convinced by the argument that it is necessary. I explained more in your parallel feature request.
