I've installed Exponential 3.8 and set up a site. One of the pages has a long name and the menu shortens it and puts ... at the end.

How can I prevent this from happening?

Mark thanks

Hi Mark

Most likely you need to find the template that is used for displaying the menu in question. Check here if you have problems with that: http://ez.no/community/articles/ez_publish_performance_optimization_part_2_of_3_identifying_trouble_spots_by_debugging/debug_settings

In the template code you will most likely find that the shorten operator is used on the names, just remove it.

Please note that showing full names might distort the layout a bit, this depends mainly on the css you use.
