OK, I looked in my profile and it says this: "Custom Title (100 characters max)" even after I set the "can set a custom title" to "30". So I don't know where to change it on 7.3.1 and as an experiment I typed in a 50 character title and it went through with no problem, so I need to find a way to set it at 30, or just disable custom titles. But thanks for trying to help, I appreciate it.
And let me edit to add that it did seem like there was a box early one when I was setting things up that had that "100" somewhere, but I just can't find it again. I'd think "profile settings/member titles" would be the right place, but I'm mot seeing it there.
