How do I increase the short description length? 10 Years, 10 Months ago
Karma: 0  
Hi,

I am currently using this template for my project:
Template_OS_Watches_april_2013

I would like to know if there is anyway I can increase the short description limit on the VM front page, it is only showing 40 characters now. (Please check image in attachment.)

Thank you.

Hello,

Thanks for using our template.

You need to edit: components/com_virtuemart/views/category/tmpl/default.php
Find there:

<?php echo shopFunctionsF::limitStringByWord($product->product_s_desc, 40, '...' ?>

Change to:

<?php echo shopFunctionsF::limitStringByWord($product->product_s_desc, 200, '...' ?>

Best Regards,

I have made the suggested changed to the default.php file.

However it didn't help with the product short description length in the vm homepage.
It still got cut off after 40 characters.
