    Switch datatype of property from textstring to textarea im Umbraco Backoffice

    I have a property in multiple document types in Umbraco that has the datatype of "textstring". I need to switch the data type of this property to "textarea" in order to allow for more characters and not be limited to 500 characters.

    Being new to Umbraco, I am unsure if this can be accomplished in the Backoffice, or whether i need to do it programmatically.

    I have full admin permissions to the Backoffice.

    Data loss is not an issue, as it is static text that simply need to be replaced.

    Hi Thomas

    It should be possible in the settings tabs to change the property on the document types to Textarea from textstring and there should not be any data loss
