You mean in the "WATCH" lists, where the video titles are cut by dots? I would also like to know how to do it. I had removed the php code in the beginning of the template but it returned an error so I had to put it back. If anyone has an idea on how to show the full name it would be awesome.

The "cut" option can be done by using Smarty.
If the variable of the video name in the template is:

{$video_name}

you can use

{$video_name|truncate:XXX}

where "XXX" is the number of characters you want displayed.

Awesome! Thanks a lot Aryos, I will try this asap.

How can we make it word wrap so it doesn't throw the rows off?

When users was typing in titles too long for the DIV section it was in, the title was going off the row (very messy) so i decided to include php code were if the title length was too long then only use so much of the title followed by ...

and what for php code if you have smarty modifier: "truncate", which is far easier to use and additionally can be configured.
