Hide Custom Field Text In Admin

-- HikaShop version -- : 4.4.3
-- Joomla version -- : 3.9.27

Hi

I have created a custom field in the table order to display some text on the front end of the site, additional information. It also shows in the admin on the order page. I have tried to set the display Back-end Form to no but upon saving it reverts back to yes. Is there a way to override this or an alternative to display the message on the front end?

Thanks

David

Hi,

That option is indeed forced to yes for backward compatibility. However, that was made years ago and I don't think it's necessary anymore.
Change the line:
if(in_array($field->field_table, array('order', 'product'))) {
to:
if(in_array($field->field_table, array('product'))) {
in the file administrator/components/com_hikashop/classes/field.php and that should then work properly.

Hi Nicolas

thanks for the code change. I assume this will be addressed in the next update?

Thanks

David

Yes.
