    Default Possible to change Admin layout of adding new book products?

    As easy populate isn't compatible with Mokus Book Product Type, is it possible to tweak the layout in admin, when I'm adding new products so I can have the data-entry fields customised to the way I work.

    For example - I would like it to read like this:>
    Product Name:
    Subtitle:
    Products price gross
    Products price net
    tax class
    product description
    pages
    author
    date available
    etc

    just rearranging of how its presented to me in admin to make for easier data entry and reading.
    What is the filename of such a page?

    ALSO (from Admin)
    Can one turn off the preview when submitting a product-book? Its rather annoying as it doesn't have mokus book fields in it - or can I add them in? Whats the filename?

    ALSO (from Admin)
    Can you make the product-book the default (instead of product-general?)

    ALSO (from Admin)
    When viewing book authors - or - any list for that matter from EXTRAS
    Can you tell it to display 300 lines instead of cutting it off @ 20?

    Thankyou in advance.

    This is possible. You just have to change order of fields in this file:
    admin/includes/modules/product_book/collect_info.php

    It'll be greatly appreciated if you add them to this file:
    admin/includes/modules/product_book/preview_info.php

    Please share your file if you do it, I will add it in the contribution! (with your credits of course)

    Yes, you just have to "Restrict to Product Type" (including SubCategories) to "Product - Book" while editing a category.

    This is handle by "MAX_DISPLAY_SEARCH_RESULTS", wich you can customize in the Admin interface ("Configuration > Maximum Values > Search Results Per Page").

    This feature is being add to the future "Products Persons" contribution, wich will replace "Book Authors".
