Item Description Field

How do I increase the length of the field for item descriptions?

Thank you Doreen. I find that when I insert a description in the NAME field, its only about 27 characters. and does not go to the end of the field - it stops about halfway.

Hi there Jacmus,

 

I've replicated your issue with the item description field, and it does allow me to enter 255 characters. If you're referring to the Name field from the Profile tab, the character limit that you're getting is normal. You can refer to the screenshot below.

 

 

Instead, you can enter 255 characters in the Description field from the Item Details tab.

 

 

Best regards,

Doreen

    Thanks Doreen, 

    it would be good if we could use the whole length of the NAME field for our product descriptions.

    Best regards,

    Greg
