Hi guys,

I have a problem with the custom fields.
Basically what I'd like to do is have Suburb as a required field, however, when I enter the information, it still renders all in capitals i.e. TOWN/SUBURB

I have firebug installed and I can change it on the fly at td class=key but I can't find it anywhere.

Can anyone help?

Regards

Kevin

I can't reproduce such problem on my end. Could you also post a screenshot of the options of that custom field ?

Hey nic,

On the options page for the fields, it looks fine in the preview.
But when it gets to the front end, it gets all weird.  [ ![&#91;img](http://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/suburb.png) ](http://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/suburb.png "&#91;img")

That's because all the custom fields are translatable and the "suburb" string is in the front end translation file of joomla: SUBURB=TOWN/SUBURB
So, when the field is displayed on the front end, the field is translated automatically.
You have several solutions:
1. Change the name of your field. For example, if you enter Suburb&amp;nbsp; as the title of the field, it should be ok (&amp;nbsp; is the HTML code for space)
2. Change the joomla translation file languages/enGB/en-GB.ini to remove or modify that translation.
3. Add the line SUBURB="Suburb" in the HikaShop translation file (via the interface in the config under the tab languages) so that it overrides the joomla one.

Thanks so much nic.

Never had any sort of service like Hikashop. I'll be recommending this to all my friends.

Thanks once again!
