Place short description in the product overview

Hi there,

I would like to create a custom field called "short description" in which I have to be able to add individual descriptions for each product. These descriptions must be shown in the product listing overview on the checkout page (see attachment).

Any ideas how to do that? And which kind of custom field do I have to create?

Hi,

You need to create a custom field of the table "product".
In order to display them in the cart products listing of the checkout, you will have to edit the file "cart" of the view "checkout and add such code :
<?php echo $row->CUSTOM_FIELD_COLUMN_NAME; ?>

(where CUSTOM_FIELD_COLUMN_NAME is to be replaced with the column name of your custom field) after the line:
<?php echo $row->product_name; ?>

I´m sorry, I don´t see any <?php echo $row->product_name; ?> in the file "cart" of the view "checkout"...
Please check again.

Please see attachment. There you can see how the individual custom field texts must be positioned. The kind of which you have described is not the solution I´m looking for, I´m sorry. Hope to have informed you correctly now.

Hi,

I'm sorry but the solution I gave is the correct solution for what you want to do.
I just checked and the line <?php echo $row->product_name; ?> is present in the view "checkout / cart" as I said earlier.
If you don't have it, it's probably because the view had already been edited, or because you have an old version of HikaShop.

Neither, nor. The problem was the browser searching tool, it hasn´t done its jop properly. Anyway, you´re right of course. Many thanks!
