New line in product list - short description

[gregor123]

Hi,

 

Anyone maybe knows how to make new line in product list description, so it will look the same as short description at product review.

 

I want to have same text with new lines in product review description and product list description. When I write product description and when i check it out in product list there are no lines in product description, it replaces "new line" with "space".

 

i have prestashop 1.4.7

I think you have to enable short description html, to do so edit product-list.tpl file and remove " |strip_tags:'UTF-8' " from " {$product.description_short|truncate:360:'...'|strip_tags:'UTF-8'} "

hmm it works... but it also moves the price under description and also "add to cart" and "view" button under the picture

well, you have to modify css and/or layout in product-list.tpl file...

Does not work for me!

{$product.description_short|truncate:360:'...'}

 

Also does not work.

{$product.description_short|replace:' ':' '}

 

Printing {$product.description_short} Gives me the string with   spaces. In the DB the string has no  

 

What i have to do??

I know this topic is already a few months old, but maybe someone encouters the same problem.

I solved it by editing product-list.tpl and changing

{$product.description_short|strip_tags:'UTF-8'|truncate:360:'...'}

(around line 45)

to

{strip_tags($product.description_short,'<br>')|truncate:360:'...'}

 

This strips everything except the newlines.
