Hi Desiree,

This would require editing the source code, so we cannot provide all the specific details, but if you look in the file 'HomeCode.asp', you should see a line like the following that applies the logic to truncate the Description if it exceeds 22 characters:

if len(pDescription)>22 then
pDescription=left(pDescription,19) & "..."

If you increase the number in the second line (19), it should allow more characters to be shown before the Description is truncated.

Where can I go to change the settings so that the Hyperlink/Product Descriptions aren't truncated on the home page?
