How do I get the product short descriptions off the category pages?

Thanks to Firebug I know it's .product-list-text and I know to use {display:none;}.

What I don't know is how to have it not show on the category page but I do want it to show up on the product page.

Please be patient with me if this has already been dealt with. This is my 1st day in v7 forums. I have copied and pasted just about every css question and answer from the v4 forums in the last month.

There is no option to completely remove it from the product lists, you can only hide it with CSS. The short description was implemented specifically for use in the product lists in 7.x because it is an industry standard use of short description and it helps tremendously in search engine optimization.

You can also remove the short description text and use it as a first paragraph in the long description, if you need to show both descriptions on the product details.

Andy - I may well use the v7 features 3 months from now but right now I have 21 days to make my store look like something that wasn't created by a 4 year old - I'd say a 53 year old who doesn't know too much about css (which is who I am) but I wasn't the one who created all the IDs, Elements, and what nots. I am the one who has to stop and guess what they are and what to with them.

So ... to anyone out there kind enough to post, is the answer to my question

.product-list-text {display:none;} thrown into a css file named z.css ?

TIA

Oh, your first post read like you already knew how to hide it with css and was asking about removing it completely.... that is correct. div.product-list-text {display:none } in z.css or migration.css.

Hi Andy,

I have same situation,

I desperatly need to hide short description from product list.
If i totally remove it and add it to long description will not work.
1. will not be able to export it with feed for google
2. i will not be able to customize it in the page product layout.

I have no idea how to add it to css, if you would be kind and make me a custom css file for that and upload it to my site
www.14kzone.com.

I would really appreciate your help

Just add this to the Header HTML:

CODE
<style type="text/css">
  div.product-list-text {display:none }
</style>

Put this in the header of the actual website? Or put it in the CSS document? Anyone that could give some quick clarification would be helpful.

Thanks.

It works fine with me in the header, but after all this option is useless, you cannot upload product with short description has more than 255 characters.

I don't understand why is it so complicated to customize our site they way we like or at least the way it worked previously.

OK, you just put it in your store header? (in the MCP went to design<header & footer and placed it at the bottom of the header source?

Below is my header source:
