simple options are limited to showing 12 characters in the name by the following code on the webassist/plugins/shopping_cart/add_to_cart.php page:
<?php echo substr($row_AddedOptions['OptionGroupName'], 0, 12); ?><?php if(strlen($row_AddedOptions['OptionGroupName']) > 12) echo "... "; ?>:</label>
you could increase that by editing the 12 to a higher number:
<?php echo substr($row_AddedOptions['OptionGroupName'], 0, 18); ?><?php if(strlen($row_AddedOptions['OptionGroupName']) > 18) echo "... "; ?>:</label>
If you set it to show to many characters, it can break the display though.
to fix the problem of adding "here" to the entered value, edit the following code:
<input type="hidden" name="SingleOptions[]" id="SingleOptions_<?php echo($row_AddedOptions['OptionGroupID']); ?>" value="<?php echo($row_AddedOptions['OptionGroupName']."here"); ?>">
to:
<input type="hidden" name="SingleOptions[]" id="SingleOptions_<?php echo($row_AddedOptions['OptionGroupID']); ?>" value="<?php echo($row_AddedOptions['OptionGroupName'].""); ?>">
