How-To: Add new Properties to your Products

[KismetDesign]

It was in the collect info.php file. Thank you!

Hello Everyone!

I've searched the thread and just can't seem to find the solution here. Does anyone know how to implement what Crazy Chris showed us here with Easy Populate. I've done all the steps in the first post and uploaded the files where everything appears successful but the new information I was hoping to see is not showing up. Thanks to you all for such a great thread!

Thats a link to one of my products which should display the new information

Thanks again everyone

Ok - I think I am almost there -
but I niow have this errors mess in my products table

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in C:\xampplite\htdocs\snfcart\admin\includes\modules\product\collect_info.php on line 47

here is my line in that file:

if (isset($_GET['pID']) && empty($_POST)) {
$product = $db->Execute("select pd.products_name, pd.products_description, pd.products_url,
p.products_id, p.products_quantity, p.products_model,
p.products_image, p.products_price, p.products_virtual, p.products_weight,
p.products_date_added, p.products_last_modified,
date_format(p.products_date_available, '%Y-%m-%d') as
products_date_available, p.products_status, p.products_tax_class_id,
p.manufacturers_id,
p.products_quantity_order_min, p.products_quantity_order_units, p.products_priced_by_attribute,
p.product_is_free, p.product_is_call, p.products_quantity_mixed,
p.product_is_always_free_shipping, p.products_qty_box_status, p.products_quantity_order_max,
p.products_sort_order,
p.products_discount_type, p.products_discount_type_from,
p.products_price_sorter, p.master_categories_id, pdex.products_skilltype'
from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p, " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_DESCRIPTION . " pd,".
TABLE_PRODUCTS_SKILLTYPE . " pdex

where p.products_id = '" . (int)$_GET['pID'] . "'
and p.products_id = pd.products_id and p.products_id = pdex.products_id

and pd.language_id = '" . (int)$_SESSION['languages_id'] . "'");


Ideas please?

Hi with regard to this - it is very useful - thank you. However I am using tabbed products, I actually want these added fields showing up on the details tab. I have tried playing around with the tpl_products_info_display but can't get it to work.

Website is www.bike-force.co.uk which I have been working on for a couple of weeks - first time using zen cart. Also My lite box has stopped working.... Any help would be appreciated - thanks.

You will see I have done a basic if statement that displays item delivery time if out of stock taking this value from the newly created field. It will display "standard delivery time" if it is in stock. But I would like to place this data next to the stock field - but can not do this simply by placing code next to it in product_info_display.

Hi,

i have read the thread and couldnt't find anything about language support. Is it also possible to add properties for different languages as with attributes? And if how?

Did you ever get this to work. I'm trying to do the same thing.

<td class="main"><?php echo zen_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '24', '15') . '&nbsp;' . zen_draw_input_field('products_guarantee', $pInfo->products_guarantee, zen_set_field_length(TABLE_PRODUCTS, 'products_guarantee')); ?></td>

I need multi lines, how to do?

Can somebody explain how technicaly to"open the table "products" in your zencart-database"?

Thanks

Bikeforce,
I'm pretty certain your question should really be directed at the author of the tabbed mod since this is something funky with how that mod works.

I use the tabbed mod as well and just gave up on trying to get the details in a tab.

You may want to repost your question. I don't think anyone knows what you are asking. What are multilines?
