Categories / Titles are being truncated

Does anyone know how to show / wrap the full categories and title w/out it being truncated? See here for example: http://heteromorphic.com/zencart/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=22

Also, is there a quick way via excel or spreadsheet format to import product manufacturer and URL?

Thanks! I appreciate any assistance!

While it's majorly difficult to see what's going on at your site, bear in mind that the VARCHAR limit in the database for category names is limited. I think it may be just to 32 characters (possibly 64). You will need to see the table to determine what that value is. It can be changed, of course, via phpMyAdmin.

You could consider either Easy-Populate V4, or Apsona ShopAdmin.

... and I think you should work at making the site a lot more simple. very hard to see what's going on. Would I attempt to shop there? ... No.

Sorry, very new to Zen and just merged stuff from Miva and am working on merging first, and now I have to clean it up...
So being new - is the phpMyAdmin via the admin page or do I need to find via FTP? Can you direct me where to find please?
Thank you!

Different hosts have different ways to access the database for your site. You'll need to check with them.
Personally, I would try to come up with shorter titles for categories. Just making it longer will result in having to make the font smaller in order to "fit it in" which will result in an even harder to read site.
You've jumped on your horse and rode madly off in ALL directions. It's not uncommon and I wish there were some way error flags would fly in cases like this.
It's somewhat like standing in front of a microwave hollering "Hurry Up!"
