Guest Posted February 2, 2003 Posted February 2, 2003 :?: Is there any way to up the maximum text length for the product name? Some of the product names are lengthy because they are book titles (including subtitles). :( EXAMPLE: Should be: The Wicca Garden: A Modern Witch's Book of Magickal and Enchanted Herbs and Plants Is only showing: The Wicca Garden: A Modern Witch's Book of Magickal and Enchante Thanks!
Guest Posted February 3, 2003 Posted February 3, 2003 Change it directly in the database. Ok, so now the question would be...how do you do that?
rseigel Posted February 3, 2003 Posted February 3, 2003 Depends on the server. If you have a hosted account most likely you already have phpmyadmin installed. Poke around your control panel.
Guest Posted February 3, 2003 Posted February 3, 2003 Specifically what would need to be changed in the database? I have no control over the server nor am I allowed to have access. I will need to contact the person in charge and have them change it. They will want from me specifically what needs to be changed and to what. From what I was told, only certain things can be changed or it might break the database.
Guest Posted February 3, 2003 Posted February 3, 2003 in the products_description table, in the field products_name, change the type to varchar(your_desired_value). It is varchar(64) by default.
Guest Posted February 3, 2003 Posted February 3, 2003 Thank you. I will pass this information on to the person who runs the server.
agtlewis Posted February 4, 2003 Posted February 4, 2003 install phpmyadmin for direct database access.
