Product name truncate in block-cart?

[Ray UK]

Hi,

I have enlarged the cart block somewhat.

I have edited the truncate command in blockcart.tpl to

{$product.name|truncate:30:'...'|escape:html:'UTF-8'}

 

When adding a product to the cart, the title of the product seems to be truncated.

Yet after refreshing the page, the full title is show and not truncated.

 

Where do I have to edit to show the product name in full on adding the product (before refreshing the page)

 

Link is in my sig

 

Thanks

also in blockcart-json.tpl i have changed

 

"name":          "{$product.name|html_entity_decode:2:'UTF-8'|escape:'htmlall'|truncate:30:'...':true}",

 

and forced a refresh. But the product name is still truncated untill a refresh

Here is what I mean....
I added the top product and refreshed.
The 2nd product I added but havent yet refreshed.

The 2nd product name is truncated, but if I refresh now then it is not truncated.

 

Ive tried in blockcart.js and blockcart-json.js but can figure it out

hello

 

what blockcart-json.tpl file you changed? located in /modules/blockcart/ dir or in /themes/YOUR_THEME/modules/blockcart/ ?

Hi,

 

Interested by a fix for that too as I get exactly the same issue (truncated then refresh then not truncated anymore) though I amended blockcart and blockart-json in the theme properly...

 Finally got it to work in PS 1.6 (full txt when add to cart) by changing in yourtheme/js/modules/blockcart/ajax-cart.js

 

 

the following with the desired length:

name = (name.length > 25 ? name.substring(0, 24) + '...' : name);

I precise this is if you want the product name to be displayed fully, or up to xx characters when added to cart without having to refresh
