?? New product fields in product.tpl but not in table
 

Is it possible to take a new product field and then add it on the page but not in the additional fields table. I want additional fields but need to control where they go on the page and not just lumped in one table.

Sure, it is possible, but it would take some custom programming in the database and X-Cart to do it.

Custom requirement
 

Hmm... thatБ─≥s a disappointment. I can't believe the only field available is "Detailed description" and adding another field but getting it positioned in anther table is not available.

Wanted to use Cart-Labs tabs and call one tab specifications and one details. Then use extra fields to dynamically populate with content.

OaK.

Oh wait, sorry...I misunderstood your request. You can call each individual extra field by itself:

{$extra_fields[1].field_value}
{$extra_fields[2].field_value}

etc, etc, etc

Hard things so easy
 

Thanks... how come things that seem so hard in the interface are so easy.

Much appreciated.

Spoke to soon
 

Now that I have the extra fields working so well is there a way to exclude field "0" from the general table display. Its shows twice now

Right now the extra fields table display plus the segmented {$extra_fields[0].field_value} displays. I need to get the independent reference to the extra field "0" to be the only "0" on the page.

Trial and Error wins again
 

Just in case someone else is following this thread in interest. I am no X-Cart pro but this seemed to work just fine to eliminate the general write all to table default.

{/if}
{if $active_modules.Extra_Fields ne ""}
{$extra_fields[0].field_value}
{/if}
