1.5.1.3 - Options text too short in confirmation

Hi All,
I want to use the ability to select Checkbox Options for products. My problem is that the options text (under product name) is cut short in the shopping cart, order confirmation and confirmation mail. Just part of the text is visible. Can I make the text field longer and if so, how do I do that. Can you display the text in more than one line if on line (at max length) is too short?
Looking forward to your reply...

You can work with wordrap() PHP function
For example at catalog/controller/checkout/cart.php
At line 408 replace
Code: Select all
'value' => (strlen($option['option_value']) > 20 ? substr($option['option_value'], 0, 20) . '..' : $option['option_value'])
with
Code: Select all
'value' => (wordwrap($option['option_value'],30, "<br />"))
Best,
Hilde

I seem to be having the same problem but I'm using Opencart Version 1.5.2.1
The example code above doesn't appear for me, but I think I found the similar code below and I'm wondering if I can just change the 20 to a higher number as long as I don't go too high since it appears that only 20 characters are being shown (if I'm counting correctly lol)
or if I can't increase that number what are my options to prevent the Option text from getting cut off in the cart and in order confirmation emails?
Here's the code I'm looking to edit:
Code: Select all
'value' => (utf8_strlen($value) > 20 ? utf8_substr($value, 0, 20) . '..' : $value)
);

For Version 1.5.4.x follow the directions above but the line to edit is now 215. Works in the Shoppica2 theme as well.

What about for 2.3.0.2? I don't see the checkout.php in the same path as mentioned earlier. Which file/line would I need to replace for the email confirmation?

I just wanted to add to the thread that if you don't want the text to get cut off in the PayPal page after someone checks out using PayPal Standard, then in catalog/controller/extension/payment/pp_standard.php you can edit the same line
Code: Select all
'value' => (utf8_strlen($value) > 20 ? utf8_substr($value, 0, 20) . '..' : $value)
and in my case I just replaced the line with
and it works. However, does anyone know if PayPal has a limit to how many characters get passed in an option value field? I recall reading somewhere that if you have too many characters in a field, then the transaction won't go through. Anyone know anything about this?
