Truncate Product Name in Packing Slip

[maineiac13]

Previously I was able to use the function zen_trunc_string to truncate product names in the shopping cart sidebox.

Now I would like to also truncate product names in the packing slip.

I presume that the area I need to address is here:

<tr class="dataTableRow">' . "\n" .
           '        <td class="dataTableContent" valign="top" align="right">' . $order->products[$i]['qty'] . '&nbsp;x</td>' . "\n" .
           '        <td class="dataTableContent" valign="top">' . $order->products[$i]['name']; 

However, I have not been able to figure how to use the truncate function there to accomplish what I want. All my efforts have ended up with either non-functioning or blank packing slips.

So can someone lend a hand? Thanks

In case anyone is interested, I was finally able to accomplish this.

First I needed to insert the truncate string function found in includes/functions/functions_general.php into admin/packingslip.php.

Then all I had to do was to modify the string relating to the product name in the packingslip.php file to read:

(zen_trunc_string($order->products[$i]['name'], 105))

The 105 is what I finally decided I wanted as the length of the product name in my packing slips...but that number can be any number that one would want to have.

Thanks for posting the update to the solution to adjusting the length of the products_name field on the orders packing slip ...
