Source code: Specifications What's wrong?")* To add information to products. For example, if you sell books, you might want a field to enter the ISBN. If you sell computers you might want a lot of fields for all the specifications of the computers (RAM, CPU, screen, HDD, etc). Then, you can use those fields for search, or product comparison, so they are actually quite useful.

The main difference is that this custom field cannot be edited by customers, only administrators can change it.

The field will be displayed automatically on the product page once you enter something in it in your products.

I don't get a custom field (product, radiobutton, 2 values) displayed on the product page. All I get is "Specifikations" but not more. Source code: Specifications What's wrong?")* Now it works! The problem was, that first I created a custom field with a radiobutton, which wasn't displayed on the frontend though there was selected one option in the product editing. Later I created a second custom product field (text) and suddenly both custom fields appeared in the frontend and naturally searching worked. So that was the reason, why I couldn't follow you.
