Re: New Field in product page

Hi!

The main process is as follows:
1) Create an empty module as described here: http://kb.x-cart.com/display/XDD/How+to+create+a+module
2) Create the file Model/Product.php script inside your module with the following content:

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

namespace <YOUR-NAME-SPACE>;

class Product extends \XLite\Model\Product implements \XLite\Base\IDecorator
{
    /**
      * @Column(type="integer")
      */
    protected $my_int_property;

    /**
      * @Column(type="string", length="32")
      */
    protected $my_string_propery;
}

You should use your own namespace in the script, of course. Within the example, I created two properties: integer property and string one.

Once you rebuild cache X-Cart 5 will update tables and new field will appear in the database.

If you can give more details about how you want to display on invoice, I can help you with this part as well.

Tony.

Hi!

First of all, you should check the last webinar doc for more details.

This section describes how you can replace menu items with your own ones:

Re: New Field in product page

Based on your guide I was trying to add a product property and display it on my product page. I had no problem creating the field and storing a value in the xc product table, but when I tried to make add my .tpl so it would display on the product page I kept getting a Call to a member function get() on a non-object error. Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?

Hello Phil,

How do you display your template on the product page?

For each template file there is a PHP class that provides getSomething() methods to that template. If you do not specify such a class, it uses the class selected for the "parent" template file.

So, it looks like you display your template inside another template that doesn't have the necessary method (used in your template).
