Enlarge the textarea of products categories

Hello,

My apologies if this sounds simple, you can change the category description text area height manually:

Via custom code, you can add the following CSS code, you can add it by navigating to WP Dashboard ? Appearance ? Customize ? Additional CSS.

textarea#tag-description { 
    height:700px!important; 

}

Change 700px for the value of your preference. This is the result on my testing site that is using Storefront and the latest WooCommerce version:

I hope this helps ??

Thanks Igor but it’s width that I need to resize.

Even if I replace height by width in your code, it won’t work.

Kind regards

Hi @bvedgie ,

If I understand correctly, you would like to expand the width of the “Description” field within Products → Categories, is this correct?

This would require either a third-party plugin or custom code to achieve, which is outside our scope of support.

While I do not know of any plugin or custom code that can help you achieve exactly this, it may be worthwhile asking your customization questions in one of the channels below:

• WooCommerce Advanced Facebook Group
• WooCommerce Developer Slack Channel

Alternatively, for direct help with custom code, you could look at?hiring a developer.

Additionally, if you have any ideas that could improve the WooCommerce core plugin, feel free to submit an Enhancement request.

Hope this points you in the right direction!

Hello Roxy,

Yes, that’s it. You should be able to see that this field isn’t easy to use and that we consider a lack of Woocommerce/Wordpress functionnality.

So, I’m pretty surprised of your reply and it’s “out of scope” of your support.

Thinking it’s not relaible.

Best regards

Hi @bvedgie ,

I absolutely hear your concern, and I’d recommend submitting an Enhancement request as having the ability to adjust the width would provide a better user experience ??

May I ask what in particular you are having difficulty with, regarding the “Description” field?

After checking your screenshot, it appears slightly different to what I am seeing on my test site which uses the latest version of WooCommerce and WordPress, as seen below:

Are you using any custom code on your site which changes the display of the admin pages, or perhaps any plugins that allow editing of admin pages on your site?

Cheers!

Hi @bvedgie ,

We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – feel free to create a new topic? should you need any further help.

Cheers!
