Product Description and Reviews tab conflict on long descriptions

[nadiafleece]

Hey guys, I ran into a disappointing issue and need some help.  I am using VM2 on Joomla 2.5.16 as a catalog only to post product reviews.  It works great on shorter reviews, say 500 words or less, but on longer reviews the "review tab" does not work.  Clicking the review tab does not change the page to the reviews, or make any changes for that matter.  What does happen is the reviews get placed at the bottom of the product description page.   Anyone have an idea how to fix this?  I've searched through the codes for review and ratings, as well as some others that might be linked, but nothing in the code indicates a new page when clicking the review tab. 

Your help is greatly appreciated 

Thanks,

Nadia

Ask your templater. Vm has imho no tabs for reviews.

VM 2, on the products page has a review tab next to the description tab, and according to VM site, it's stock.

I found the solution.  After days of sifting through the code I couldn't find anything, but my articles were getting cut off when this conflict happens, and found characters go to varchar after 1500, so here;s the fix. Use SQL to
alter table   "your prefix"_virtuemart_products_en_gb change column product_desc product_desc TEXT NOT NULL;   Now you can have as many characters as you want with no more issues  Hope this helps someone.
