XF 2.1 varchar 50 in XF_NODE --> title to 75

Hi,
I changed varchar to XF_node -> title (and node_name) from 50 to 75 characters.
I can expand the names in the table (50 is really hard at the limit!). But I open a forum, change something there and go to save - comes the message that I should reduce to 50 characters.
Where do I have to change that?
Otherwise, I always have to shorten the title and later add in the table again ...

You would have to adjust the entity structure as well.
But I can't stress enough that I would strongly recommend against doing that:
The XenForo style has been designed with this limit in mind. If you increase it, you might end up with dozens of places where a longer title does not fit.
Furthermore, Google has an ~80 character limit for <title> tags to be fully displayed in SERPs, so there is not much that can be added to not exceed this limit on pages > 1.
Though that might not be an issue if the forum is not public.
