HI,

I have a lient who is insisting on some very long names for menu items.  Is it possible to change the maximum length?

Example "Love and Kindness as a business tool" becomes "love and kindness as a business" when displayed.  Not quite the effect she is looking for.

Thanks in advance.  Sean

Hello, the template doesn't have a max length on it. I just did a test with that title, "Love and Kindness as a business tool" and the whole title appeared. Is it maybe too long to fit on the actual menu bar?

You are correct...I should have explained better.    I can create the menu item and add any description I like.  When the menu is displyed, it knocks off the word tool.

Edit the file s5_suckerfish.css and search for "width" every time it has a line for width increase the number by about 50. And then finally find:

#navv li ul ul {
   margin: -20px 0 0 200px;
}

And increase the 200px by 50 as well. That should increase all the sub's widths.
