Is it possible to add a line break to a product title via admin?

I want product titles to look neat and would like to be able to add a <br> to a product's name.

Can anyone please advice?

Thanks

You can modify the /skin1/customer/main/product.tpl via the admin edit templates, search from the product-title and add a </ br> line-break.

I think they mean adding a break in the actual title, which isn't possible as the product name can't accept html.

How about possibly modify somehow to have after x letters line-break in the template?

Thanks for your responses.

Yes, I am referring to the actual product title.

Is there a way to have it wrap after a certain number of characters, if html is not possible here?

[RichieRich]

you can truncate the product title after a number of characters, this would be like "product tit..." so you would miss some letters. Otherwise there could be a smarty template method to achieve this

Sounds great. Any idea of the code to use?

Maybe you could try putting the title in a fixed container width - then it will break when it does not fit in the container. Something like:

<div style="width:150px;">
<h2>This is a test title - if it does not fit in this div width - it will break to a new line</h2>
</div>

^ Fixed div is the way to go.
