How to remove post submit restrictions?

sdantuoni

I need remove composer textfield, and i can remove this from the composer.tpl in my plugin, but where i try submit the topic, the NodeBB sendme a notification says: Please enter a longer post. Posts should contain at least 8 character(s).

How i can disable this verifications via my plugin?

... but... if you want to send a reply, you need text, don't you?

@julian Yes, for reply, but no for Topic creation

If you use this variable in composer.tpl  you can remove the textfield only for topic creation and no for reply

julian

What if you set the minimum text required to 0? ACP setting...

@julian Yes, but this thing tells me to enter more than 0 characters.

I try send textfield with value=" " with whitespace but not recognize spaces as chars

@sdantuoni Yeah, I ran into that problem too, I want to have some section where you can put the link in the title (a-la-reddit style)

@julian You can reply this post? I need that for work.

No, there's no way to bypass the check (though 0 should ignore the check, technically)...

Have you set it to -1? Just thinking out loud.

Otherwise, you'll have to input some dummy text and have a post submit hook that removes it or replaces it with spacer symbols, etc....

@julian Cool, and... How can we do what you suggest to send text if we remove the textfield in the composer template?
