Extra short description on product page

Hi,

I would like to know if there exist any way, how to add an extra short description to the product page and will be always unique for each product.
This short text should appeare in the product listing in category.

I know now it is possible to use the <hr> to put the text, which shoul appeare in category.
But our klient ask to have extra short text, which is not the part of the desrtiption.

The example is her: dpm-images.fr/photo/43-leica-set-macro-e...category_pathway-132
The short text is marked at the picture in attachement.

Hi,

That you are pointing is a product custom field. It allow to create new "columns" for your products with a specific type (text, date, list..).
You can add a "text product custom field" and modify your product listing view in order to display this custom field.

You can also use the product description with the "read more" separator and edit the product page view in order to not display the begin of the description (before the "read more" tag separator). So you will have two different descriptions in a single field.

Product custom fields required a commercial version of HikaShop. It gives you a good flexibility but it is possible for your case, to it without.

Regards,

Hi,

I have put the "read more" tag into the description of the product. The part, whis is before (intro text) is displayed in the category listing as should be, but is also visible in the detail of product page. I don´t want to display this part on the detail of the product page.
How can I correct the code in "show_default" to do this?

Now is there this code:

<div class="hikashop_product_description_second">
<?php
echo JHTML::_('content.prepare',preg_replace('#<hr *id="system-readmore" */>#i','',$this->element->product_description));
?>

Could you help me with this?

Hi,

You have to customize the Regex.
Maybe something like that can work:

I use the code a have the warning code on the product page:

Warning: preg_replace() [function.preg-replace]: Compilation failed: nothing to repeat at offset 0 in /data/web ...

Thank you Xavier. It is working perfectly.
