## Description

For some wordpress themes it is very useful to limit comments to a certain amount
of characters. WordPress does not offer such an ability therefore I wrote this small
plugin to limit the length of the comments.

Based on:
 * [Minimum Comment Length](http://yoast.com/wordpress/minimum-comment-length/).

## Installation

Installation is easy:

 * Download the plugin.
 * Copy the folder `maximum-comment-length` to the plugins directory of your blog.
 * Enable the plugin in your admin panel.

Optional:

 * An options panel will appear under Options.
 * Decide on which comment length you’d like to block and what error to throw when
   a comment is too long.
