Category widget truncates category titles

    I think this is a feature request rather than a support request. The categories widget truncates the titles of the categories and there does not appear to be an option to stop it from doing this. Can there be a setting added instead such as “Limit title length?” and when you tick the box you get to set the max length of the title as a number of characters please?

    In the page link you can see that “Food preparation Equipment” has been truncated to “Food preparation equipm…”

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • Hi,

    Currently title is truncated with the help of CSS but I will add your suggestions in our tasks list for the future requests.

    Hi @vaccinemedia,

    Just to follow up on this…

    For the category name, you might notice we add a faded shadow to the bottom of the image to help show the text on some backgrounds, this works great on one line but if pushed higher it can cause issue on some background colors. Additionally, when viewed on mobile the image may be shown smaller and the title may entirely cover the image.

    If for now you still wish to show it fully you can use this CSS

    .geodir-categories-container.bsui .text-uppercase {
    text-overflow: unset;
    white-space: initial;
}

    Thanks,

    Stiofan
