Guest Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Hello All, I've found that the cart has a description name limit. looks like the limit is 56 letters. Has anyone come accross this and does anyone know the fix for this. Thanks Paris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burt Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 You'll need to amend your MySQL table. Look in your host control panel would be easiest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Hi, I'm not sure what you mean, i'm not a programmer ;-) Is there an easier way of doing this ? Thank you Paris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Is there an easier way of doing this ?No. You have to change the length in the database, as that is where it is set. The simplest way to do this is with something like phpMyAdmin. Most hosts provide this or something like it. products_name is in the products_description table.

Guest Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 What would it need to be changed to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 What do you want the length to be? It will support values up to 255. By default, the length comes as 64, you can change it to anything in the range 1-255. Hth, Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 So i go into PHPMYADMIN go into my database files and open it from there? Is it like opening it in dreamweaver? or will it go into a word doc and i have to change it from there and then upload it. Thank you Paris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raceonusa.com Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Never mind i've done it ;- ) Thank you for your help, and if anyone else needs to find a step by step solution just drop me a line: [email protected] I'll be happy to help Thanks I tried to implement this here on a friend's test store but the most I can get is around 60 characters, even though I changed the table to allow 255 varchar for ‘product_name’ in the product description table. http://www.duraflexkits.com/product_info.p...roducts_id=4413 Do you know if I’m missing something?
