Description

Have you ever wanted to have longer descriptions for your paid subscriptions? Well, now you can! With this product, you are no longer restricted to 255 characters. This modification will change the field from varchar(255) to MEDIUMTEXT, allowing you to use enough characters for nearly anything you could possibly think of.Notes

If you uninstall this product at anytime, please be aware that your descriptions will be then cut to 255 characters.Comments

Initial release.
Please click install if you use my modification. I will support this modification as best as I can. It's a fairly simple one, but I'm still learning my ways of the plug-in system. =D

I will only give support to those who click install.

Hi ive installed the product, but it doesn't change my existing subscription description to the desired character length. Still stuck at 255 chars

[evenmonkeys]

When you try to add more text to the description of the subscription, what happens? Does it just cut off the end of what you say?
