In reply to: [CataBlog] Using excerpt for category page but description for lightboxHi mbrsolution,
Yes in fact that was what I did before I came to the support forum 🙂
I guess this is the best solution for now! Thank you very much for your suggestions and your effort, I appreciate it very much!

In reply to: [CataBlog] Using excerpt for category page but description for lightboxHi mbrsolution,
Yes, I’ve enabled WordPress filters and Render line breaks. I’ve also set Excerpt length to my desired length of 250 characters.
So now my product description in the category page shows 250 characters, but when I click on the product image and lightbox pops up, its also 250 characters. I need the lightbox description to be the full description (could be anything from 500 to 700 characters).

In reply to: [CataBlog] Using excerpt for category page but description for lightboxHello mbrsolution,
Thank you for the suggestion. Yes in fact I have tried replacing the %DESCRIPTION% token with %EXCERPT% for the Default template.
This makes the product description in the category page truncated, which is good. Unfortunately it also makes the lightbox description truncated, which is not good – I need the lightbox to display the full product description.
I think the problem is in the catablog.lightbox.js file – the lightbox takes the HTML from the catablog-description div, if I’m not mistaken.
I’m not that good at coding, so I’ve been trying to research more on how to do this. Would appreciate any more pointers if you have 🙂
