K2 Category Intro Text Limiting

Hey guys/girls,

Okay so basically in K2 I have made a category called "Inverters" then several sub-categories named after brands of 'Inverters'. My issue is that I have had to put a description in each of the sub-category.

What my issue is when you click on 'Inverters' you get the full description of each of the sub-category and it looks messy, and unprofessional.

My question is how do limit the amount of words each of the categories have?

So far I have tried:
1) Editing setting in the main "permissions" in k2 - Result; nothing happened
2) Editing setting in each category section - Result; nothing happened

If anyone has encountered this problem, or knows how to fix it please let me know.

Bellow is the links to the category page 'Inverters' so you can see what I mean by looking messy, and unprofessional:

Thank you

Hi,

A quick solution for you:

Add this code to file override.css (with CSS Override mode enabled in template setting):

Code: Select all

.subCategoryContainer{
height: 476px;
overflow: hidden;
}


Hey Don,

Thank you so much for that works like a charm! I was wondering is it possible to get a "Read More" bottom at the bottom of each category?

Also will that code affect any of my articles of modules?

Hi Vlad,

I think that code won't affect any to other places. In order to have Readmore button also, we would need some customization to php code. Can you PM me backend and FTP access then I can take a try for you?

Thanks,
