Hi all. I have a quick question on this procedure if someone would be kind enough to help me out.

I've followed this procedure exactly as outlined in the first post, and have successfully added six custom properties to my general products. THANKS SO MUCH crazy_chris!!!

I decided it would be nice to add similar custom properties for the Document - General "product" type as well. I set up the custom fields in the products table exactly as before, and made the same modifications to collect_info and preview_info, EXCEPT...

...in admin/modules/document_general
instead of admin/modules/product

The input fields are there, just as expected, when I go to create or update a Document - General product.

However, looking at the newly-created product in the database (via PHPAdmin) the values entered into the custom fields aren't being inserted into the database.

There's only one update_product file for all product types, and I did add the new custom properties to the SQL array right below where I added the previous ones.

I do notice that a little farther down in the update_product code, there are two sections:

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//// INSERT PRODUCT-TYPE-SPECIFIC *INSERTS* HERE //////


//// *END OF PRODUCT-TYPE-SPECIFIC INSERTS* ////////
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//// INSERT PRODUCT-TYPE-SPECIFIC *UPDATES* HERE //////


//// *END OF PRODUCT-TYPE-SPECIFIC UPDATES* ////////
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////

...but if I need to put something there, what needs to be put there unfortunately is a bit over my head.

Anybody care to share some thoughts on what I'm missing to insert these values?
