Hello,
I am trying to find the file that sets the ####_virtuemart_products_en_gb table and creates the product_name structure row.
I would like to change the char type to text so it can be bigger by default
If I do this in the DB virtueMart resets it to default values when I add a new product.
Thanks for anyones help.
just change it directly in the DB with phpmyadmin etc
at the mo it is product_name char(180)
or do you mean when you run the install?
Hi,
At the moment I am manually changing it in the DB to text
but as I said when I add a product in the back end VM changes it back to char(180)
So it must be set from a file but which file?
Thanks
but if the db field IN THE TABLE is set to char(180) it will shorten it to 180 charactors
of are you saying u change it to varchar (2000) in the DB table and a script changes it back?
Yes :)
did a quick search of all instances of product_name in the admin files - see no code that would do this
why would they bother? why run a sql script on every product save?
I had a look for it to didn't find anything.
So what keeps setting back to defaults?
