   Hi all,

   I was wondering if someone could help me track down whatever code it is that makes project titles in the computer showcase automatically cut off after a certain character count? A lot of our titles are too long for the current character count, and I'd like them to be displayed in full :)

   Thanks everyone!

   Okay just solved this, with the fun new upshot that now text gets cut off by the extremities of overall navigation up there. I also now understand why the character count limit was in the template in the first place :P
   For anyone interested <h1 class="mantle"><?php echo sc_string_limit_chars( get_the_title(), 20 ); ?></h1> is the line you're looking for it homepage.php

   Now if I can just expand the text cut offs, if anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them :)

   I'm sure four months later you don't really need this anymore, but for anyone else with a similar problem - I just reduced the font size for the title. You can edit in the style.css file. Find this line:

   body.page-template-homepage-php #mantle h1 {
   	font-family: 'LeagueGothicRegular';
   	font-weight: lighter;
   	font-size: 40px;
   	margin-top: 18px;
   	text-transform: uppercase;
   
   }

   And I changed the font-size to 20px. Worked for my purposes after I adjusted the character count limit.
