Can't select multiple categories from ProBlog List's "filter categories"
Permalink Browser Info Environment
Hi,
I built a website with a ProBlog List on homepage showing recent articles from multiple categories (all page types). It worked well when i delivered the site to my client. However, when my client started adding more categories, the list stopped filtering articles from multiple categories.
I've tried to add other categories to the list, but i can't save changes. The list lets me choose either "All categories" or any single category, but not multiple categories. This is weird, could anybody help me with this. How to start troubleshoot?

All the category names are correct, because the list shows posts from any single category, the problem is that it doesn't allow me to select multiple categories. When i click "save" and get back to the list's edit dialog, only one category is selected. I'm using the ProBlog list on many pages and the same problems exists on all of them.
I've attached two screenshots demonstrating what happens when i save changes.

Problem solved! Category field in the btProBlogList table is set to varchar(64) and because of long category names, max. two names fit into the field. I increased the max length to 255 and it works.
