2 Questions: Additional Fields AND Special Sidebox

Okay.. I had someone ask me recently if ZenCart does this. I've search the forum a bit and after what I read, I'm guessing no unless there's an update somewhere that I missed.

1. Can we add additional fields to the product, such as they having to specify the size or color they want, or if they want it engraved and if so, what do they want engraved on it, etc. ??

2. Is there a sidebox that I can turn on that will show the "recently viewed products" that the customer has browsed through?

Have you looked into the Attributes yet?

You may wish to load a test copy of Zen Cart v1.3.6 into a test directory such as: /test using a test database, username and password ... and install the demo data so that you can see all the features, functions etc. of Zen Cart to get a better idea of what is already built in and how it works with the various Products ...

It is really a great way to learn about Zen Cart and actually see examples of how to do the things you need to do based on Products already setup in a similar manner ... :smile:

Ah ha.. I found the additional fields solution.Thanks...

Any suggestions bout the sidebox question?

There exists a best sellers side that you can turn on but something needs to have been purchased for it to show.

This and/or the about us module in the downloads area can be used as a model to start to create a recently viewed function.
