Creating a Member Directory - Increase length of List Field Value

We are creating a member directory in S2Members Pro and have included a custom field for user bio. The default display of the custom fields cuts the content down to about 50 characters.

How can we increase the allowed characters for the Members List field Value?

[s2Member-List show_fields=“About:cb_aboutme” /]

@AJD I realise this is an old topic but I think I’ve just been looking at doing the same thing as you, so thought I’d share my solution.

I have no buddypress, and wanted to have a list of members which also showed the info we’ve set for their profile (as I can’t link to an individual profile page for each member).

The reason the content is cut down to about 50 characters is the ‘white-space’ setting in the s2member-pro.css as this is set to white-space:nowrap;. This needs to be set to white-space:normal;.

So go to /wp-content/plugins/s2member-pro/src/includes/s2member-pro.css find the bit of css that has the white-space:nowrap; in, copy it into your child theme style.css and change it to white-space:normal; (maybe with the !important setting too).

Sorted! Hope this helps you, or anyone else looking to fix this issue.

I have exactly the same problem… a ‘bio’ section that is truncated in the s2Member-list. I tried changing the s2m white-space to normal in the child theme but had no luck. Anybody else solve this? Thanks!
