I am attempting to display some text under the Specifications Tab. I've assigned the field to the specific category and products but it will not display on the front end product page. Any thoughts on why it is not displaying how i can display this text?

It appears that only the Custom Text field type is not displaying on the Product Page. :blink:

Hello,

Did you tested it on the "Navy suit new" product ?
Also, can you try to set a value through the "customtext" field of your "Navy suit new" product's configuration page and test it again ?

Thank you.

Hello, yes I tested it on the "Navy suit new" product and it does not display on the front end.

Also, because it is a customtext field type, I am unable to edit the value from within the product's custom field's area.

Hi,

All you're saying is normal.
The role of a custom field of the type "custom text" is to display custom text on the form.
So if it's a custom field of the table "product", it will allow you to display custom text on the product edition form (and thus that text won't appear on the product page of the frontend).
If it's a custom field of the table "item", it will allow you to display custom text on the product page of the frontend.
But if you want to be able to modify that text for different products, then what you want is a custom field of the table "product" and of the type "text" or "textarea", not "custom text".
