premium Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 I need help to recall the product text in productboxes in the new products box. the text is gone, now it is just [...] and no text.. Link: http://www.webshop.combatkit.no/index.php?...amp;language=en
acbatchelor Posted April 18, 2009 Posted April 18, 2009 my guess is that [...] means that the description is too long to fit and it doesn't show it because of this. i don't know for sure because i don't use product descriptions in my store.

MrPhil Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 If you look at the HTML output for the page, you will see that there is a paragraph defined for the descriptive text that's only 40 pixels high (less 5 pixels top padding). This is obviously meant for a very brief description (2 or 3 lines, at 10 pixel font size). I haven't been able to find the code that decides if the descriptive text is too long, and replaces it with [...] (is this from a contribution?), but my guess is that's what's happening. Is the text that shows up when you click the link to the product info page the same text that gets used in the thumbnails? If so, you'll need to trim it way down. Does it use different text for the two, and you've got the same text in both? Define a much shorter one for the thumbnail.
