Custom Field "Date" button" displays incorrectly

Hello,

I have recently bought the Business version of Hika Shop. I am using date custom fields in the item table but the calender button is not displaying properly. Rather than a small calender icon - it displays as a small thin button. Can you advise me on what needs to be done to get it to display correctly?

Also, is it possible to add a custom filed to a single item rather than the whole category?

Many thanks,
Monica.

Hi Monica,

1. You'll probably be able to adjust the look of your "date" button by using some CSS code.

2. If you want to restrict your custom field to only one product, you'll have to :
- Create one category through "Hikashop->Products->Categories->New"
- Add this category through the category tab of your product configuration page
- Restrict your custom field to this category through the "categories" option

Hope this will help you a little.

Hi Mohamed,

Thanks. I have managed to edit the CSS using some styles from the Joomla Prostar template since your calender only looks correct in that template (it does not work in Beez20 either). I was unable to get the calender icon to show up but instead I have manged to display a button with the word "Calender" on it.

Hi,

The calendar is display by Joomla itself.
We use a native function of Joomla to display it.
If you check the file "administrator/components/com_hikashop/classes/field.php" you will find at the end of the file (last line) which calls the Joomla calendar display for the "date" custom fields.

Regards,

Actually, I did not find the /classes folder.
In administrator/components/com_hikashop/ there is only the following folders:

controllers
fields
params
views

Kind regards,
Monica.

Hi,

You're not looking in the administrator part, you are in the "front-end" part.
Please first go in the "administrator" folder.
