Thank you in advance!")* Hi, The lines you are missing are "Custom text" item fields. Unlike the other custom item fields, they are display only: they hold no value that the customer enters, so HikaShop does not store them on the cart line or on the order. That is also why, for a Custom text field, the "Display" section of the field edit page only offers three targets: "Front-end Product Listing", "Front-end order details page" and "Invoice". The cart and the back-end order page are deliberately not in that list. So you have two ways to get that information where you need it. 1) Without any code (recommended for order handling) Edit each Custom text field (menu Display > Custom fields) and turn on: - "Front-end order details page", so the text shows on the order the customer sees, - "Invoice", so the text shows on the invoice you print to produce the item. For most workshops the invoice already contains everything needed to "make the correct product", so this is often enough. 2) With a view override, to also show the text inside the cart and on other pages To know which view file draws a given area, go to System > Configuration > Advanced and set "Display view files" to "With extra parameter in the URL". Then add tp=1 to the URL of the page you are looking at (the cart, the order, etc.) and HikaShop will print the name of each view file right where it is used. That tells you exactly which entry to edit under Display > Views, where you can override any view file safely (your changes are kept when you update HikaShop). For the cart, the view is "checkout / show_block_cart". Replace the existing item fields loop (the block using $this->extraFields) with this one: Code: if(hikashop_level(2)) { $item = $cart->cart_products[$i]; $fClass = !empty($this->fieldClass) ? $this->fieldClass : hikashop_get('class.field'); // Start from the item fields already flagged for the checkout, add the display-only // "custom text" ones, then reorder everything by field ordering so the texts stay // interleaved with the other fields, exactly like on the product page. $itemFields = !empty($this->extraFields['item']) ? $this->extraFields['item'] : array(); foreach($fClass->getFields('all', $product, 'item') as $namekey => $f) { if($f->field_type == 'customtext') $itemFields[$namekey] = $f; } uasort($itemFields, function($a, $b){ return ((int)@$a->field_ordering) - ((int)@$b->field_ordering); }); foreach($itemFields as $field) { $namekey = $field->field_namekey; if($field->field_type == 'customtext') { $label = $fClass->getFieldName($field); $html .= '<p class="hikashop_cart_item_'.$namekey.'">'.($label !== '' ? $label.': ' : '').$fClass->show($field, '').'</p>'; continue; } if(empty($item->$namekey) || !strlen($item->$namekey)) continue; $field->currentElement = $item; $edit = true; $html .= '<p class="hikashop_cart_item_'.$namekey.'">'.$fClass->getFieldName($field).': '.$fClass->show($field, $item->$namekey).'</p>'; } } The same idea works on the other views that list the item fields (for instance "order / edit_products" for the back-end order page): start from the fields the view already loads, add the "custom text" ones, and sort the whole list by field_ordering before printing. Keep in mind this text is the same for every order of that product, so if it is only meant as a reference for your own production, option 1 with the invoice is usually the cleaner choice.

You're not doing anything wrong. As I said in my previous message, "custom text" custom fields don't display on the cart / checkout and thus there is no display setting for these. As I said, you would need custom code to add their display there.
