meta keyword field problem

[ddock]

I want to input as many meta keyword as I can, however I receive this message :

The field META keyword (English (United States)) is too long (255 chars max, html chars including)

 

I tryed to edit the database but the problem still exist.

Its bad to put that many keywords in. Search engines disregard the meta keywords these days and stocking your site with so many will actually hurt your site.

but is there any way to put in more than 255 keywords ? i have the latest prestashop installed and now i cant find ps_metakeyword length in the database . I need to disable the keyword limit in prestashop. Please help

what PS version you use?

 

check classes/Meta.php file

 

you've got there something like:

  'keywords' =>   array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'lang' => true, 'validate' => 'isGenericName', 'size' => 255),

 

you can change size param value

I using version 1.5.4.1 . I follow your steps and the error still there when I try to put in keywords. I also attached the screen shot

[vekia]

can you try to decrease the value, and check the error comunicate then?

It works now, i just change the value down to 1 and it works. now i can input more keywords , thank you

[vekia]

you're welcome

 

so you've got no limit in keywords now?
