Category Characters

[Nick1973]

Hi I'm aware this has ben asked a few times before but none of the answers I found seemed to work globally.

I need my category names to be slightly longer by about 10 characters, so how do I do this in the database and what do I need to change?

Can anybody help me with this as Kims post link didn't work.

That link takes me right to the post on how to change the categories_name from 32 to 64 characters:

ALTER TABLE categories_description CHANGE categories_name categories_name VARCHAR( 64 ) NOT NULL;

Sorry, the thread I posted was in a closed section of the archives.

Note: I found the thread by scrolling to the bottom of the page and checking the Similar Topics.

Providing you do not have any database table prefixes ...

If your tables use prefixes, then you will need to add them ...
