featured items description character limit

[Microfrost]

Hi,

On a website we are developing we have featured items displaying on the index page. We want to edit the character limit for the description from the default 150. The configuration only seems to allow the limit to be adjusted for the regular listings.

I've been looking around in the code but despite my best efforts I cannot find the function that limits the characters in this case. The line calling the description seems to be in tpl_modules_featured_products.php:

$tm_desc = zen_trunc_string($featured_products->fields['products_description'], PRODUCT_LIST_DESCRIPTION);

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Chris

We are having the same problem just cannot find anywhere in the database or the php code....

Does anyone have any idea on this one as we have been looking at this for hours

Cheers

We have found it finally....

If you go to includes/modules/yourtemplate/featured_products.php

Around line 89 look for

$products_desc = substr(strip_tags($featured_products->fields['products_description']), 0,75) . '...';

and change it from 75 to whatever you like

Hope this helps

Cheers

Paul
