You can change in admin panel or also you can change in the template file:

 

Find {$product->description} in product.tpl and change to for example:

{$product->description|truncate:360:'...'}

well, if this is product description (not short description) there are no limitations related to the description length.

it is possible to check your website? it is online?

 

Yes, shopintimo.es - go to a product, for example here:

http://shopintimo.es/durex/dispensador-durex-pleasurefruits-45-cajas-4-uds.html

 

description stops on "Fabricad" - but has to be: "Fabricado en (country) - (finishing the line)

So, is the that short description? I was thinking that is the full description when I click on the product.

I've seen something on Preferences -> Products about "maximum size of the short description" which is set to 500. If i change that, there is no change. Right now i put it on 300, and nothing. Same thing if i put it to 700 or more.

Folks, Prestashop 1.7.7.0.

In a CSV file I don't see the "short_description" field, only the "description". Is it named differently or there is no "short description" thing anymore? 

I have both fields in for Prestashop 1.4.6 CSV file.

 

Update. Found it. Looks like it's being called "Summary" now.
