In the Business edition of HikaShop you can create custom item fields which are displayed at the same place and which enable you to ask your users to enter information relative to the product before adding it to the cart.
That is added to all the product pages of your website so it might not be exactly what you need though ?

Hi Nicolas

Yes, that would probably be ok. I have just created a couple of custom fields, but they are not appearing on the product page... how do I make that happen?

Thanks
Mark

You need to create custom fields for the table "item". Other type of custom fields will appear on other forms.
