Length of site_info (URL) is too long

    Hi,

    We kept bumping into the problem that error reporting didn’t work for some of our readers. After some investigation we figured out that the length of the URL is the problem because the site_info column in the (prefix)_reword table is limited to 100 characters. I modified this field to varchar(255), and it now seems to work properly. Would you consider raising this limit, or getting rid of it? Since the plugin saves the part of the URL that is after the ? and # marks, it is not hard to make URL-s even longer than 255 characters in certain cases.

    Thank you for the great plugin!

    Looking forward to your opinion on this subject.

    TiomKing,

    Thank you for fixing this problem!

    The site is https://villanyautosok.hu and it has nearly half a million unique readers every month.

    May I suggest one more minor modification?
    In the list of reported errors (on the backend) there is a link to the post, but theres is no link to the edit page of the post. It would be awesome, if I could directly go to the edit page. I don’t know how hard it is to find the PostID from the permalink, but if it is possible, it would save an extra click on every correction.
