As it says in the documentation for custom fields: > For custom fields of the tables "Category", "Product" or "Item", you can restrict the display of the custom field to only some categories. [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/4...shop-field-form.html](http://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/42-hikashop-field-form.html) For product custom fields you'll need one of the commercial editions, Essential or Business. --- Need help with customisations of layouts, style or other site development?
