Product Name shortend

[Rajastones]

Hello,

 

I am using Prestashop 1.3. I have many products but just can't get the product names to appear on the line.

 

For example:

 

http://www.rajastones.co.uk/5-Lighting

 

It just shows: Two Teak Sandstone . . .

 

I wish not to have the full stops, showing that it has been shortend.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

 

Raja

Find the file style.css and look for the section labeled UL#products list LI H3 A and change the width to 200.

Hello.

 

{$product.name|truncate:30:'...'|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}

 

This line means that the products name will be truncated after 30 characters(or maybe less,i forgot).

 

Also "..." will be concatenated to it.

 

Find your tpl file and find the line that displays the products name and remove the truncate part.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Edit : the .tpl file is product-list.tpl.

My post as how to fix your issue was done using my Developer tool and works.

Hello,

 

Thanks for the advice.

 

I have looked at this:

 

{$product.name|truncate:30:'...'|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}

 

But I could not find it. All I could find was:

 

<p class="product_desc">

<a href="<?php echo ((is_array($_tmp=$this->_tpl_vars['accessoryLink'])) ? $this->_run_mod_handler('escape', true, $_tmp, 'htmlall', 'UTF-8') : smarty_modifier_escape($_tmp, 'htmlall', 'UTF-8')); ?>

" title="<?php echo ((is_array($_tmp=$this->_tpl_vars['accessory']['legend'])) ? $this->_run_mod_handler('escape', true, $_tmp, 'htmlall', 'UTF-8') : smarty_modifier_escape($_tmp, 'htmlall', 'UTF-8')); ?>

" class="product_image"><img src="<?php echo $this->_tpl_vars['link']->getImageLink($this->_tpl_vars['accessory']['link_rewrite'],$this->_tpl_vars['accessory']['id_image'],'medium'); ?>

" alt="<?php echo ((is_array($_tmp=$this->_tpl_vars['accessory']['legend'])) ? $this->_run_mod_handler('escape', true, $_tmp, 'htmlall', 'UTF-8') : smarty_modifier_escape($_tmp, 'htmlall', 'UTF-8')); ?>

" /></a>

<a href="<?php echo ((is_array($_tmp=$this->_tpl_vars['accessoryLink'])) ? $this->_run_mod_handler('escape', true, $_tmp, 'htmlall', 'UTF-8') : smarty_modifier_escape($_tmp, 'htmlall', 'UTF-8')); ?>

" title="<?php echo smartyTranslate(array('s' => 'More'), $this);?>

" class="product_description"><?php echo ((is_array($_tmp=((is_array($_tmp=$this->_tpl_vars['accessory']['description_short'])) ? $this->_run_mod_handler('strip_tags', true, $_tmp) : smarty_modifier_strip_tags($_tmp)))) ? $this->_run_mod_handler('truncate', true, $_tmp, 100, '...') : smarty_modifier_truncate($_tmp, 100, '...')); ?>

</a>

 

 

 

In short I do not know what I am to change, as the example above is different from what I have put here. I do not understand "tmp, 100", it is not something that I can see that I should change in the example above.

 

Any advice would be appreciate.

 

Thanks

Just follow my post is easy and will work. can be made widder in the furure if needed.

Thank you for your help tdr170. I have increased the number to 200 and 250, but it has worked on some pages but not on others. I have a full title on the Pergolas, but not on the Planters.

 

In response to Martin, I have looked at the product-list.tpl file but not follow your advice, hence the copy of code in the post.

 

If I do find it what do I remove exactly in the code.

 

Thanks Martyn.

 

Your help is appreciated tdr170 & Martyn.

Try this.

 

Open folder themes/theme028/product-list.tpl

 

Search for " $product.name " everywhere in the file and remove the truncate part everywhere.

[Nuvish]

If this worked,mark this post as solved.

 

 

 

But i cannot see any product names on your web-site : http://www.rajastones.co.uk/5-Lighting

 

 

Edit : The names appear for the english language,its good.

Changing the truncate number on products-list.tpl worked! Thanks
