Increase character limit in homepage category description
under review

Currently, we can add 100 characters in the homepage category description section. We have to use JS to update the description to more than 100 characters. It would be great if the default support is provided for more than 100 characters.

Hi Kavya. Our longest text is 172 characters, so I think raising the limit to 200 or 250 would be fine. We don't need links and can handle formatting by embedding HTML markup (as we do now).

Hi Paul Barrow , Uppili Srinivasan,
Thanks for the feedback! Today, the homepage category description field supports 100 characters, and anything beyond that needs to be handled through custom JavaScript. Before we consider adjusting this limit, we’d love to understand your requirements more clearly.
How many characters would you ideally need?
Are you looking to include richer content (e.g., formatting, links, multi-sentence text)?
What’s the main goal—SEO, improved user context, branding, or something else?
This context will help us evaluate potential improvements.
