hi,

i have a suggestion that can move hikashop one step ahead.

in the custom field (product)

when choosing a text area i thing that it should have an editor - it can make the product page more sexy

add the possibility of a form - simple one that will use the customer ask a question about the product - this is very important before a buying decision to let the customer the ability to ask Q about a product

thanks
Amit

Hi,

Thank you for your feedback.
The first option is nice. However, joomla does not handle well multiple html editors on the same page and we had trouble with that. So having custom fields with an html editor could break the product edition screen depending of your editor, the version of joomla , your browser etc. We couldn't find a way to solve all the cases and had to abandon that idea (we wanted to do that for the multiple translations edition but had to use popups in the end).

Point 2 is taken into account.

Thank you

Hi,

1. you can switch the comment section and the sub modules of the product page easily by editing the file show of the view product via themenu Display-&gt;Views. The code is near the end.

2. you can add html in the field and it will become a link: &lt;a href="MY_LINK"&gt;TEXT&lt;/a&gt;

hi,

1. i tried to add an html to the custom field for example: &lt;a href="[ www.youtube.com](http://www.youtube.com)"&gt;youtube&lt;/a&gt;
but after saving the system delete the code and just the youtube text remain and its not becoming a link at the front.

2. i understand thats its a problom to have 2 editors in 1 page, maybe its possible to do something like that:
to split the desription of the product page, that some of the text will show at the category view and the second part will show just at the product page. (i think its a must for a product page)

enclose a pic that describe it. image missing http://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/prodact_page.jpg

Hi,

1. Indeed HTML tags are removed from custom fields for security reasons.
You can change the line Code:

$object-&gt;$column = strip_tags($value);

to Code:

$safeHtmlFilter = &amp; JFilterInput::getInstance(null, null, 1, 1); $object-&gt;$column = $safeHtmlFilter-&gt;clean($value, 'string');

in the file administrator/components/com_hikashop/classes/field.php

2. You can already do that by adding a read more link to the description. Normally you should have a read more button on your html editor for that. Otherwise, you can just add the html code Code:

&lt;hr id="system-readmore" /&gt;

in the description (by editing the html directly).

Nicholas,

Has something changed in the latest version?

I tried to apply the above patch in field.php. The string to replace exists twice. I have tried changing either of them and both of them, but my custom field keeps stripping the html code out.

Since 1.4.2, we integrated the modification (a bit more evolved to increase the speed) so you should not need it.

Hi Nicholas,

I restored the original field.php and html code is still stripped when using this.
