Regards")* Hi, How about one of the numerous CCK extensions available for joomla [ extensions.joomla.org/extensions/news-pr...content-construction](http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/news-production/content-construction) ? That would allow you to build the forms/listings for your data and then some of them can probably display the data in a module which you can include in your products description with the loadposition plugin of joomla.

Maybe I should learn to work with such a solution? Still I am afraid it would take me days if not even weeks for such a small feature... ![:/](/irritated.gif ":/") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzI3OTMyLXNvbHV0aW9uLWZvci1wcmVkZWZpbmVkLWluZ3JlZGllbnRzP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")** - [![nicolas's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar63.png?1793428657)](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") - [ Offline](/forum/user/63-nicolas) Less More - Posts: 86316 - Thank you received: 14276 - - 15 years 1 week ago [\#27979](#27979) by [nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") Replied by *[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")* on topic *[Re: solution for predefined ingredients?](/forum/2-general-talk-about-hikashop/27932-solution-for-predefined-ingredients#27979 "Hello, one of my customers want to run an online shop for cosmetics.

Regards")* Well, your feature might sounds small to you but each time you want something "custom", it's generally not easy to do unless you code or know a tool to do it. I still think a CCK is your best bet unless you have some money to hire a freelancer to do it or the knowledge to do it in house.
