Hi,
two questions:
1. I noticed that there is no limit on the size of the author description, but when displaying it below an article it gets 'cut-off' with '...' after 180 characters. I think this limit is hard coded in ./components/com_cjlib/framework/functions.php line:
	public static function substrws( $text, $len=180, $tags=array()) {

is it safe to change this to e.g. 1000 or will this impact other things that I am not aware of?
It would be a nice feature to have this value as a setting in cjblog options :)
2. I want to beautify my user description with html code like <br>, <i>, etc. It is possible to input these codes but somehow they are deleted every time, so not persistent. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks again for this wonderful component!
regards, Ruud.
