I see that there is a limit in the number of options I can add to a checkbox. Is there a chance to override this limit? Many thanks,
Gianni

Also, I noticed that when I add a new option and move it into the order I want, it seems to delete (or hide) another one.

Hello,

let me try to explain. In the backend Toolset -> edit group I have a field type checkboxes called COLOUR and I have added around 170 colours as options. If I try to add another one it seems to not work because it delete a previously inserted option.
Is there a limit in the number of options a checkbox field may have?
Thanks,
Gianni

There is no such limit but as per the issue you shared it seems on your server it reaches the limit of "max_input_vars ". I asked you to share debug information you you did not otherwise it was helpful to identify the issue.

Can you please try to update your "max_input_vars" value on your server to 3000 and check if that help you to resolve your issue:
