Dh42 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 If you are talking about on the product page, go into your template file called product.tpl look for this line, it should be around 450 <a href="{$accessoryLink|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}" title="{l s='More'}" class="product_description">{$accessory.description_short|strip_tags|truncate:70:'...'}</a> And change the 70 to what ever you want it to be. That is how many characters it shows up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dh42 Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I think its funny that you blew my first answer off. But it is even funnier that you are asking again. To do it on the catalog, you need line 35 of the products-list.tpl change the 360 to what ever you want it to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zybxtv Posted March 23, 2012 Author Share Posted March 23, 2012 I feel really sorry for that, and also I am not a smart person with computer, so I am a little bit confuse for you answer. do you mean "To do it on the catalog, you need line 35 of the products-list.tpl" , the "products-list.tpl" this file under my host server , because I cannot find it in the backoffice, thanks again.

tdr170 Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 First set the max size of the Short description in BO: Preferences -> Products -> Short description max size Then you must change short description's truncate size in tpl files you must change both files. Both files are in the same location. product-list.tpl product.tpl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
