Changing Item Name & Description information on cat listing page?

Wasn't sure how to word this... if you go to my site you'll see a table with two products in it, and all of their information displayed in the columns.

http://www.eaglerockbooks.com/cart/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=79_97

In the third column over, under the heading 'Item Name', it says in bold, the name of the book. Then underneath of it, it displays 3-4 lines out of the description.

The problem is, it doesn't make any sense. Is there any way to control what it says? Can I create a field for this and type it in somewhere?

Thanks for any help.
KD :smile:

There are mods that play with that aspect of the display, in the Free Software Add Ons (link, top-left). But I see you're using a Template Monster template. Implementing any modifications in TM templates can be problematic. (See many other thrteads here for more on this.)

I did start with a TM template. However, very little of that is left. I've customized it to death and kept backup copies of everything. I've also been careful with what I'm using out of the custom vs default folders due to complications with upgrading... :smile:

Do you know what the mod is called or how it works?

Thanks for the help!

Glad to hear you're using this: I plan to keep it much more aggressively up-to-date than has been the case in the past, but don't hesitate to let me know if you find errors or need clarifications.:clap:
