Substring() for Fields in MYSQL -

-

i don't understand why didn't work out:

select id,name,concat(substring(description,0,30),'...') desc_shortened, created_date,added_by products

even though there data inside of description field. didn't see field example on mysql documentation tho. used pure strings instead of column names.

concat(susbtring(description,0,30)) returns ... , that's all.

use substring(description,1,30) instead.
