romper Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I can not import products from a csv file due to exceeding reference length. After importing I have error message that: product (ID 2) Cannot be saved Product -> reference Length 32 How to change length of characters for reference field to 255. Does such modification slow down a store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bewitching Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Hi Romper, The reference field is meant for a stock number, or a number you use to identify the product, like: BVD2469 A field that holds 255 characters is the description field. Hope this clears it a up bit for you, Kathleen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuaelFr Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I have the same problem as romper because I have to dynamically import products from a physical store software. There is no problem for simple products but I sometimes have 40 or 45 length references for products attributes. How could I store these references properly without having to hack the core ? Will my Prestashop installation remain updatable ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
