Hi

I've looked - and I'm not really sure where to put this...

When I am in my admin area and I want to modify a product - it uses "provider/search.php" to list them all (see below)

http://www.domain.com/xcart/provider/search.php?search_productid=&search_sku=&substring=&search_category=1

What it does to my results is to trim of the end of each product title after around 32 characters - well this is not good for me as most of my products have long titles all starting with the same 5 words

How do I change this so it outputs the full title?

And I suppose will it effect anything else so I can keep my eye on it.

Cheers

Moving this to template editing. Try opening the admin area in webmaster mode and figure out which template it is. Once you figure it out, you will want to find the code that calls the product title and remove the 'truncate' portion of the code.

I'm not sure where in the file it is, but you need to search for where it says truncate:"Number". Change the number to how many characters you want to cut it down to.

edit: Drats foiled again

Thanks Guys - I got it - its the 'products.tpl' file located at skin1/main/

Thats been annoying me for a while

Webmaster mode has got a lot better since I last used it - it would be good if you could point at a place on the page and the correct template is highlighted in the de-bug console.

Thanks again.
