Can I have multiple lines in Category Name?

Post by zorro »

Why would I want multiple lines in the Category name?
Well, I'm building a website where I choose menu item 'concerts' and Phoca displays all the subcategories, which are photogalleries of different bands. I want every thumbnail in this page to have the name of the band, date, location.
So like this:

Code: Select all

-----------
- Thumb   -
-         -
- Band    -
- Date    -
- Loc.    -
-----------
I can set the category name to be displayed in this thumbnail, but since I can have only one line, everything doesn't fit in there.
I did solve this by putting HTML-break tags in the category-name field in the database, but can I do something like that directly?

Hi, no there is no such option, there is only option to increase the box (so e.g. the text can be wrapped here on more lines)

Ok, thank you. Maybe I have to make a feature request then :)

Next question: I already did what you said, making the box bigger. Problem is that the box is bigger now as well for all the pictures IN the category, and I don't want that. How can I change that, or is that not possible?

That's not possible. You can set the parameters per menu-item. So for different menu-items you can have different parameters.
