Re: extra fields, assigning a variable, using more than one extra field

Phil's Shadowbox mod is great for displaying detailed images & video. The only thing that takes me back to using extra fields for some applications is the fact that updating the extra fields is already built into the XCART import/export functionality. (I have not had time to see what it would take to update the import/export code to add a few fields.)

Re: extra fields, assigning a variable, using more than one extra field

Hi,
I was trying in different ways to implement your idea of taking a certain extra field's value and inserting where you wish to. It didn't work for me. Can you tell me where I'm wrong:

skin1/modules/Extra_Fields/product.tpl

Code:

{foreach from=$extra_fields item=v}

  {if $v.active eq "Y" && $v.field_value}

    <tr>

            <td class="property-name">{$v.field}</td>

            <td class="property-value">{$v.field_value}</td>

    </tr>

  {/if}

{/foreach}



{section name=field loop=$extra_fields}

{if $extra_fields[field].field eq "promo_link"}

 {if $extra_fields[field].field_value ne ""}

  {assign var="promo_link" value=$extra_fields[field].field_value}

<tr><td colspan="2">

  <a href="{$promo_link}" class="ButtonOrange">Print Special Coupon</a>

</td></tr>

 {/if}

{/if}

{/section}

I have other three Extra Fields marked as "show" and one is not marked as "show" (promo_link) so I need to show the three extra field's values normally and the promo_link as a code in <a> tag. Is it possible? :roll:

I would appreciate your help, thank you!
