Discount - discount_product_id DB limitation of length

-- HikaShop version -- : 3.4.0

Hi,

When working in a CSV who need to be imported via phmymadmin on the "hikashop_discount" table, i noticed there is a limitation on the "discount_product_id" : varchar, 255 length

What do you think about that ?
In the backend, are the limitation handled ?

On my side, i got for exemple 1 line with 355char length of product id(for "discount_product_id"), for now, i gonna split the line...

Hi,

You can just change the type of the column to "text" via phpmyadmin if you need more characters.
The PHP code in HikaShop doesn't have the limitation. It's only at the MySQL level.

Hi,

If i change from varchar to mediumtext, what happen on next hikashop update ?
If you dont plan to change in your side for a next update (maybe too complicated), i will stick on another way

thx for your feedback

Hi,

There is nothing to do for hte next update. It will stay like that. Updates will only add tables and columns if missing, they won't change the type of the columns.
