Hallo.
My products have many common descriptions which sometimes change. How can i insert a product description (or a part of it) form a central article or textfile. So i have only to change on article/file to change the description in all related products.

Thanks for you reply

Hi,

I think that the best solution would be to use custom fields for the common part of the descriptions.
Then edit the view "product / show_default" to add the display of this custom field after or before the description part.

And finally this common part can be edited for all the product at one time thanks to the mass actions.
You can set it up like that: take.ms/l8Ozm

Thanks for your reply. I'll try some possibilities. What about to create html modules in personal positions and to load them by loadposition in the description where you need to? If i use your solution each product has the description in the same place.

Hi,

Yes you can perform a loadposition in the description ; it is acting like a Joomla article.
Do what you want to do ; it's up to you !
