Actually, I just noiced, the normal inventory page only shows 9 of their inventory instead of their full inventory. Load more invntory on page scroll is enabled.

Yeah I saw that. My client saw the “About” tab and really wanted it for their inventory so I was wondering how I could utilize it but so far I’ve found nothing. Thanks though, I might have to just disable it.

Okay, its a ‘nasty fix’ simply because it involves messing with the Car Demon Plugin code. And if it ever gets updated it will be overwritten.

BUT

If you go into your plugin files
\wp-content\plugins\car-demon
then go to the folder ‘includes’
find “car-demon-template.php”
in that file on line 45 you will find the following code

$car_title = trim($car_title);
	$car_title = substr($car_title, 0, 19);
	return $car_title;

Change 19 to something like 60. That fixes it. I don’t know why it was set to 19, that’s really silly. I’m using this for RV’s and they have long names.
hopefully this is implemented into an update so it doesn’ overwrite the files when I give it over to my client.

Yeah, this website I am building was almost finished and then I found this. This might be a deal-breaker. I’m sniffing through the plugin code now to see if there is anything I can do :/

I am still looking into the issue with the Quick Search. I am not very skilled in PHP. Not enough to create my own plugin, but if I don’t find a way around it I will give it a shot.

On a related note, I have the tabs limited to Description and About tabs. What fills in the About Tab? Like, I can’t figure out what goes there. When clicking on the tab, the below info is blank. And there is no way to input info when adding a new car to the inventory. What is it?

Thanks Jay,

I thought of that just a few hours ago and it works great for the Tab section. I have only Description and Specs.

As for the Search Widget, my luck hasn’t been as great. I was able to remove the actual Dropdowns for the search items I didn’t want, but there is an empty space where it used to be. I found that this empty space is due to some Car Demon CSS that states:
“
.search_car_box_frame {
font-size: 12px;
height: 320px;
width: 100%;
}
“

And I cannot modify Classes using the theme css editor. Everything else I have been able to edit fine because I was editing IDs. I am not sure why I can’t edit classes. It just doesn’t take effect. I could, edit the Car Demon files themselves but I don’t want to do that because it will be overwritten on an update.

Perhaps I am forgetting a basic principle when editing classes?

Thanks for all your responsive help.
