[SOLVED] How Can I Make FAQ Output Text Area Bigger? - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support

hello,

i doing site , need able make faq question output text area bigger.

for example:
in faq table need show long question like:
i artist. notice management company , need manager. how can signed company?

i need t able 500 characters show on output of faq section table.

at moment can see 100 characters.

i've changed administrator/com_content/admin.content.html.php on these lines:

code: select all

line 1173     <input class="text_area" type="text" name="title" size="30" maxlength="500" value="<?php echo $row->title; ?>" />
line 1201     <input name="title_alias" type="text" class="text_area" id="title_alias" value="<?php echo $row->title_alias; ?>" size="30" maxlength="500" />


this fixed input 500 characters in admin portion of title , title alias faq's.

now need know go change actual output. , in file? using firefox's webdeveloper tool, see areas called:
sectiontableentry1
sectiontableentry2
they alternate. not sure modify how many characters able shown here.

i lookd in com_content folder , found following files:
index.html
content.php
content.html.php

i searched content.html.php , found references text areas, have no idea change.


can tell me file should in , should looking for?

thanks!

hi,

you need check database, table jos_content, field "title". set varchar(100), need increase thenumber of allowed characters there well.
