Request-URI Too Large
The requested URL's length exceeds the capasity limit for this server.

(In [4506]) References #1118: Change problematic forms to use POST instead of GET

I have changed most of the forms I could find to use POST instead of GET. Many of them are probably not problematic, but I found some:

  • Form for JEP extra value calculator plug-in
  • Form for JEP intensity transformer plug-in

Closing this so we can release 2.8.2. Open a new ticket if more forms with problematic behavior is found.
