Short Description on VM single category page

Hi,
I have already searched this forum as well as Google but I have not found a solution that worked, so, here I am hoping that one of the genius here will be able to help me!
I have a total of two questions:

1. I have tried all different types of html tags including <br>, <br />, div tags, p tags, and h tags in the short description but I have not been able to show "country" and "dob" in two separate rows. Then, I have copied the code from one post in this forum to add to a file to convert the text editor of the short description into an html one but, even that has not helped me. http://192.185.154.195/~global/index.php/sponsor-a-child
I would greatly appreciate it if you can be so kind to share the solution with me if you know it.

2. I would like to show the same short description on the product detail page in the same way, meaning, to show "country" and "dob" in two separate rows.

Your prompt reply to this post will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Kindest regards..

Hi

1. Has this view been modified already ? I do not see a short descriptio being displayed in the clean demo. I will need you to send me /html/com_virtuemart/category/default.php file to me, so I'll see the code.

2. Ok. Looks like an FTP access would be better since this task is also a code hacking. Please send it to my PM.

Hi Teitbite,
Attached; please find the file that you have requested.
By the way, I haev already sent you the PM with the ftp info as per your request.
Thank you!
Kindest regards..

P.S. Please see the screen shot to see how the short description should display:

Hi

I have replaced line 189 of the file /html/com_virtuemart/category/default.php

Code: Select all

<div class="product_s_desc"><?php echo JHTML::link($product->link, strip_tags($product->product_s_desc)); ?></div>


to

Code: Select all

<div class="product_s_desc"><?php echo JHTML::link($product->link, $product->product_s_desc); ?></div>


than I added this line to /html/com_virtuemart/productdetails/default.php to line 309

Code: Select all

<div class="product_s_desc"><?php echo $this->product->product_s_desc; ?></div>


Simply genius!
