There is a fix coming for this in the next update if you can wait that long...
Or I can point you to some changes you could make as a temporary fix while you wait for that.

File: simple-press/forum/content/sp-common-view-functions.php

Function: sp_QuickLinksTopic() about half way through the file - it is a big file!

Locate the line of code:

sp_create_name_extract($spPost->forum_name, 20)

and change the 20 to 40 and save.

File: simple-press/sp-api/sp-api-common-dislay.php

Function: sp_render_group_forum_select() first function in the file.

Locate the line of code:

sp_create_name_extract($forum->forum_name, 20)

and again - change the 20 to 40.

The problem was that we overlooked that some languages - like yours - are multi-byte languages. This is changes in the next update to be user-definable from the theme templates.

Please try 80.
40 was an error. it is 40 by default and you need it longer.
