Return description to home featured products (1.6)

[b22c]

Hi, is there a way or module that put a little discription below the tittle on the home featured products like prestashop 1.5 does? On 1.6 only show the tittle...

Open yourtheme/css/product_list.css and find this code:

ul.product_list.grid > li .product-container .product-desc {

    display: none;
}

Delete display:none

Good morning

Sorry to be nosy and I do not mean to high jack this topic but I am curious, what effect does deleting "display none" have.

 

I tried but nothing changed, I have to say that I have probably got the end of the stick

Hey Paulito!

 

In 1.6 product description is in homefeatured module, right under product name but is hidden with display:none style.

If you delete that style or only display:none in a style, description will become visible.

 

One more thing. This will make product description visible in product grid too!

 

Have you tried that on 1.6 default theme?

Hi Dioniz, it work thanks.

Just other question: its possible to show only lets say 50 characters and after that hide?

Sorry my fault, I had same site open in two browsers so did not see the change,

 

It would be good to truncate the description though

Homeslider is parsing code from product-list.tpl so you need to truncate it there

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

but it will truncate it in product list too.

[Paulito]

Yes,  just tried that before you posted, it's a shame you cannot truncate independently, of course someone may come up with a solution

 

Paul

[dioniz]

Yes, hope so

 

I did it simple by copying code from product-list.tpl to homefeatured.tpl and truncated it there

Hello,

 

I want delete short description in my featured products in home but I went to product list.css and "display none" was already added

 

ul.product_list.grid > li .product-container .product-desc {

      display: none; }

 

You can visit my web www.tpvsyregistradoras.es and you can see description. Do you know what I must change for delete short description of featured block?

 

Many thanks.
