[SOLVED] Short description with WYSIWYG and HTML - possible?

[Milbo]

Yepp, this file, the save function should look like this

Code: [Select]

function save(){

$data = JRequest::get('post');

if(!class_exists('Permissions')) require(JPATH_VM_ADMINISTRATOR.DS.'helpers'.DS.'permissions.php');
if(Permissions::getInstance()->check('admin')){
$data['product_desc'] = JRequest::getVar('product_desc','','post','STRING',2);
$data['product_s_desc'] = JRequest::getVar('product_s_desc','','post','STRING',2);
}

parent::save($data);
}

Hi Milbo,

Thanks for your time!

I've overwritten https://dev.virtuemart.net/svn/virtuemart/trunk/virtuemart/administrator/components/com_virtuemart/controllers/product.php but still...our VM installation doesn't saves any HTML. Should we disable the WYSIWYG and try to enter "raw" html?

Isn't there a way to keep the WYSIWYG + HTML?

Thanks!

LATER EDIT: IT WORKS!!! For posterity, you should replace the save() function from the default product.php with the function stated before by Milbo

Hi Milbo- i have tried everything to get the product description to accept html to no avail. No matter what i do it strips the html and leaves just text.

I have changed the filtering permissions in the article options, i have checked that my JCE editor is set to not clean up code and i have downloaded and saved the newest product.php file (and then still overwritted the save function with the one you have stated above).

I have even copied the same save function used for category description as this is allowing html, but it did not change a thing!

i would appreciate any help you or any other users could give me!

thanks

I found a simple solution. In /administrator/components/com_virtuemart/views/product/tmpl/product_edit_description.php:

Change

Code: [Select]

<textarea class="inputbox" name="product_s_desc" id="product_s_desc" cols="65" rows="3" ><?php echo $this->product->product_s_desc; ?></textarea>
for

Code: [Select]

<?php echo $this->editor->display('product_s_desc',  $this->product->product_s_desc, '90%;', '450', '55', '10', array('pagebreak', 'readmore') ) ; ?>
In order to keep this setting after VM updates, you may copy the modified file to
/administrator/templates/<backend_admin_template_folder>/html/com_virtuemart/product/product_edit_description.php
