Categories/ products name length

When I put a long name in for the "product name" of 21 letters and click on it. it shows "
The page isn’t redirecting properly."
From my testing it will only allow 10 letters.
Is there somewhere I can alter the "Product Name" length one can use.?
Looked every where, but it does not stick out.

Are you using an old database?
Then you need to update the length of the fields in the products_description table - they should be VARCHAR(255), but might be VARCHAR(40) now.
You can make this change in phpMyAdmin - if you need further directions, feel free to ask for it!

Tested. The problem is therefore at your end, not Phoenix.
Maybe your host has some weird security rules?

You also might check the character set of the table/column. You could get that effect trying to insert a UTF-8 string into a forty character latin-1 column. There's a page in admin that will check that for you.

I have the latest version so assume the database must be latest.
where would I find the phpMyAdmin to make the change you suggest ?

In your control panel on your host -
