Display weight in backend

Hi

When viewing the products in the backend, is there a way to display a column for the weight?

Thanks

Hi,
Note that you already can set a weight through the "weight" option of your product configuration screen, so can you give me more information about what you exactly want to do through some screenshots for example ?
Thanks .

I'd like to add an extra column which displays the weight as shown in the attached screen shot.

Hi,

You have to edit the view "product / listing" in the backend template from the menu Display > Views.
And add the desired column header and content.
To display the product weight, you have to use the variable: $row->product_weight

Thank you, I got it to work.

When upgrading hikashop in future, these changes won't be overwritten will they?

No,
When you update/upgrade your Hikashop version, you don't loose any changes that you have made through the file of the page "Hikashop->Display->Views".
The only way to loose them will be to use the "trash" icon through the listing of the page "Hikashop->Display->Views"

Hi,

I am generating a CSV for import into HikaShop from 2 sources.
Source 1 does provide product weight (amongst other values), source 2 does not.
For source 2, in column product_weight, I simply generate an empty string between two semicolons.
When the import (via cron) is through, then the product weights I had manually added to the products for source 2 in the backend are wiped out; the products show as "virtual products".

Is there a way to feed in data into HikaShop and preserve the product weight if none is fed in?
Currently I specify a hardcoded weight of 0,75 kilograms, but that is a very poor workaround.

best regards

Klaus

Hi,

The import is to import new products. Not really to update them.
If you want to update product data via CSV, you can use instead a mass action via the menu System>Mass actions with a filter "import a CSV":
