how can i increase the number of character in short description of product list?
i mean, as we click on a category in the category list all the product will be shown in main content as a list (by default).
a small description in one line is printed between the product photo and "add to cart" button. i think it has a limitation in number of characters. [maybe 50 char in one line].
there if more enough space to show more characters and better description.
how can i increase this short description into multi-line and more characters?
