The column is called `value`. * It says in the error message `Unknown column`, which is your clue. You can’t change a columns field type per field, you need to change it for the whole column. * Also, as per my previous message, change it to a `LONGTEXT` type instead to match WordPress `wp_options` table. * All the best * Peter * Thread Starter [protesilao](https://wordpress.org/support/users/protesilao/) * (@protesilao) * [8 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bug-with-additional-content/#post-9631109) * I doesn’t succeded to change a columns field type, try you and post me the step by step solution, please. - This reply was modified 8 years, 7 months ago by [protesilao](https://wordpress.org/support/users/protesilao/). * [Peter Featherstone](https://wordpress.org/support/users/peterfeatherstone-1/) * (@peterfeatherstone-1) * [8 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bug-with-additional-content/#post-9631837) * Hey there, * There is no step by step instructions. * This is not a plugin issue but a MySQL database issue as such I would ask your DBA ir failing that your webhost and finally search on Google (that is all I would be doing for you anyway. * All the best * Peter Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total) The topic ‘Bug with Additional Content’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/responsive-menu/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=1782326) * [Responsive Menu - Create Mobile-Friendly Menu](https://wordpress.org/plugins/responsive-menu/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/responsive-menu/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/responsive-menu/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/responsive-menu/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/responsive-menu/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/responsive-menu/reviews/) * 9 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [Peter Featherstone](https://wordpress.org/support/users/peterfeatherstone-1/) * Last activity: [8 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bug-with-additional-content/#post-9631837) * Status: resolved
