Custom field view override

Hello,

It is possible, have a look on this documentation to learn how to perform override view in HikaShop.

And now a little tips, as a custom field can be display in looots of different views, use the "Display view file" option, from Main HikaShop Configuration, Advanced tab and first settings part.
If you activated it (frontend) you will have view file references and know which view file you have to edit.

Hope this will help you to achieved your needs
Regards

Hi,

Custom fields don't have view files.
The HTML of a custom field is generated in different places. For example, a "text" type custom field will have the HTML of the input generated directly in the file administrator/components/com_hikashop/classes/field.php
Now that doesn't mean that this HTML display cannot be overridden. It can in fact, but not with a view override. It can be done by developing a plugin implementing the Fields API to add your own custom type of custom fields. In your own type of custom field, you can extend from an existing custom field type class and that way, you can redefine things up.
However, this isn't easy as it requires proper PHP knowledge. We do have documentation on this here:
www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/6...entation.html#fields

Now, besides this, there are also other things that can be done:

- AJAX custom fields use texts for their display. So if you want to change these texts, you can use translation overrides to modify them: www.hikashop.com/download/languages.html#modify
That's much much easier than developing a plugin or making a view override

- While the HTML of a custom field is not generated in a view file, it's a view file which calls the custom field system to generate that HTML. So there are many things you can do in the view file calling the custom field system to either dynamically modify the parameters of the custom field before the custom field system is called, or modifying the HTML returned after the custom field system is called. In HikaShop 4.5.1 the code generating the HTML of the custom field of the table "item" on the product details page is:

$html = $this->fieldsClass->display(
		$oneExtraField,
		$itemData,
		'data[item]['.$oneExtraField->field_namekey.']',
		false,
		' '.$onWhat.'="window.hikashop.toggleField(this.value,\''.$fieldName.'\',\'item\',0);"',
		false,
		$this->itemFields
	);

if($oneExtraField->field_namekey == 'xxx') {
 $oneExtraField->field_type='text';
}

if($oneExtraField->field_namekey == 'xxx') {
 $html = str_replace('<input ','<input autocomplete="off" ', $html);
}
