Good afternoon. (UK)

Yesterday, I happily copy/paste content from rows to the Comments when a message with an error popped up to refresh. I did, only to have to redo the unsaved Comment I was working on. This happened a few times, so I checked on AT state, and no issues were reported. I experimented with another entry as that was saved I concluded there is a limit on the number of words or characters for each comment. Is that so?  (I managed to save the comment by split the content into several separate Comments, but that's not ideal)

Also is it possible to re-order the Comments or insert a new Comment in between existing Comments?

Hi @Michael_Lever,

It's not possible to reorder comments manually as Airtable inherently sorts comments based on created date. However, you can copy the URL of a field by right clicking the field and then inserting this link in a comment to reference data in your base.

Hope that helps!
