Hi Martin,

 

Have you tried going into cache folder in the root and deleting the class_index.php?

 

As you are manipulating a core Class here, you need to refresh the class index in order for the changes to take effect.

 

Many thanks,

Hi Martin,

 

Are you trying to alter the number of characters you can enter for a supplier name in the back office.

 

Or are you referring to truncation of the suppliers name on the front shop itself? example: "Supplie..."

 

Many thanks,

 

Ant.

I enter for a supplier name in the back office.

 

And I changed name length from 64 to 128(varchar)

 

But error message show "size over 32"

Create override/classes/Supplier.php with the following:

<?php

class Supplier extends SupplierCore
{
    public function __construct()
    {
        SupplierCore::$definition['fields']['name']['size'] = 128;

        parent::__construct();
    }
}

Remember to go to Advanced Parameters > Performance and then click the "Clear cache" button (or manually delete cache/class_index.php) so PrestaShop can find the override.
