increase product name length not working

[chief]

Hi, version 1.7.6.3

I have edited the database and changed products -> product_lang -> structure and updated them "name" and "link_rewrite"  to this value "255"

i have edited /classes/product.php and also edited "name" and "link_rewrite" changing 128 to 255, but my shop still nags the crap outta me stating too many characters.. no more than 128.

What am i doing wrong, i have recompiled the shop, cleared the cache, shouted at it.. nothing changes.

I have read, in relation to changing some items you have to use an override file, what code if any would i need to add to override file? /override/classes/product.php

 

Thanks

ok - first I recommend some more shouting, cause you'll be doing some more while editing......

I have changed the title to take max 255 char and it works fine, the database keeps it, the back office will save it and the front end will display it.   But - that is all I checked - so if you want to use this please make sure there are no other implications.

In your database change all instances that refer to the (product)name to 255 including the meta and the ones that show up under the supply order and order state lang etc.

Keep all the files changes you have made so far.

Make one more edit in

.../src/PrestaShopBundle/Form/Admin/Product/Productinformation.php

look for the

->add('name', TranslateType::class, [

block

change

new Assert\Length(['min' => 3, 'max' => xxx]),

]

replace xxx with the max you have in the database e.g. 255.

Clear all cache, if necessary restart  mysql and try saving a longer title.

Hi,

If you want to change the length of the product name in the category listing you can go to:

...../themes/classic/templates/catalog/_partials/miniatures/product.tpl

and change the number behind the 'truncate' (of $product.name) to the amount of characters you would like to show.

done !

Many thanks !

I could remove the  |truncate parts from the .tpl file  and it worked for Mobile..... but for some reason it still shows truncated for desktop. Any clue about that?  (I have cleared cache from the Performance section as well). 

BTW: I'm using the LeoBread theme.

I have version 1.7.8.6 and the correct file is right here. Thank you very much
