But only on the provider end of it and only if the provider adds them correct? I need permanent extra fields for all providers (and for admin would be nice) ie: file type, file version, file size etc.

this is bit complicated, as the database, php files and .tpl files need to be updated.

Is it better to hire qualiteam or one of these mod people?

what do you think?

[ARW VISIONS]

probably. I could do it for you.

[pfarcus]

Ok, I meant which is more wise to hire, qualiteam or a modder. I'm thinking one of the fields has a drop down list of choices too. You can pm me with cost.

thx

QT is good but sometimes they take a while and are a little hard to communicate with sometimes, IMHO. I used them alot in the beginning and the time difference and lack of good phone support caused me to astart learning all of this stuff so I could do it myself.

Agreed - and you could have to wait a while for them to get to it.
I'd let Ashley have a look - he'll have it figured out for you far quicker - plus with a modder - you get a more objective solution. With QT you have to tell them what you want - and they just do it in a robot like fashion, without applying business sense to the problem.

I tried this, but I'm still not having any luck. I created a new pdf_button.tpl so that the PDF button that I created will be clickable to the desired product pdf. My problem is I can get one extra field to show on the product side, but I have 3 seperate extra fields that I need to make into a clickable custom button for each product. I did look at a mod that someone suggested, but after emailing with the company it's determined that the mod is not what we will be using. Ashley do you have any suggestions for me to try?
