    Default alter and add new product properties

    I have set up a motorbike online shop and would like some help.

    I would like to alter the product Model to say product Code.
    Also to add the following extra info:
    product make:
    product model:
    product year:

    Don't mind if its a new database for the addons, but need help limited knowledge of MySQL.

    I have added a before shot and a after shot which I need to make it look like.

    Thank in advance.

    The easiest way is the add the new fields to the product table, but you would also need to amend the collect_info, preview_info and update_product files for your product type in the admin and the product_info header and template pages to extract the data from the database and display it.

    For a competent developer or an enthusiastic amateur with minimal database knowledge, this would be relatively straightforward. But if you don't have PHP programming skills, then this is likely to be a bit overwhelming and would exceed what could reasonably be covered in a forum post.

    Got it sorted, but have come across another problem.

    How do you edit easy populate to accept the new properties.

    That would be a question for the Easy Populate support thread, if it's not already answered there.
