Hi There,

First of all, I have been a very happy Zen Cart user for several years now, and feel I can use it for pretty much anything I want. In order to improve the process of entering products, I've been looking at a variety of ways of simplifying the "Text Description" to a minimum.

Usually, for any product, I would add a Product Video, which I embed using a web-based video player. Lets say YouTube, and they expect a certain PARAM that changes for each video I want to add. Rather than manually copying the EMBED code from their website for every product, I was thinking of a way of placing the EMBED code in the php file that displays the product info, and then passing the PARAM value to the code by some means.

I think there would be 2 ways of doing this:

1. Either I add a new field to each product called PARAM and the value is passed on to the EMBED code
2. I use a BBCODE style tag like [youtube]PARAM[/youtube] which is grabbed by the EMBED code

Any idea on how I could do this most efficiently? Thanks in advance for your support and suggestions!
