Category description truncating

Product Support
4

The description excerpt truncation happens on the server here.

It’s limited to 300 characters, and there’s no setting for that. However, you can use a theme component to bypass that and override the property and make it use the full description (the entire first paragraph).

Try adding something like this in the header section of a theme component.

<script type="text/discourse-plugin" version="0.8">
  const { on } = require("ember-addons/ember-computed-decorators");

  api.modifyClass("component:parent-category-row", {
    @on("init")
    updateDescription() {
      this.set(
        "attrs.category.description_excerpt",
        this.attrs.category.description
      );
    }
  });
</script>
