Product Manager: Custom Required Fields?

Post by kms »

Is there a way to add custom required fields to a product? Say for instance you are selling custom embroidered hats, there needs to be a required field where the user enters their name before they can add the product to the cart, or at least on checkout or something...

THANKS!

if you are rerfernig to calguy ecommerce suite (Product/Cart/Order), the login requirement is handled by order module (you can find it somewhere in the settings).
Products can have custom fields as well as attributes (ex size small, -100$ on the price)...

you can check if user is loged in with cusom content module...

Code: Select all

Hi markovica,

Thanks for responding! Yes, I am using Calguy's ecommerce suite. I've got everything working, including the login, very nice. But what I need is present the shopper/user with some required fields and choices on a product. The simplest example I could think of is selecting "small, medium, or large" on a t-shirt. A more complex example would be a required text filed, where a user can enter a name to be embroidered on a shirt. Anyone know if this is possible, or where /how I would do this?

Thanks!
