-- Joomla version -- : 3.9.18

I have a question about the backend form for products (form.php).
I have a field that is of the type textarea. I have put it in as follows:

<dl id="hikashop_product_eigenschappen" class="hika_options">
      <dt class="hikashop_product_eigenschappen"><label>Eigenschappen</label></dt>
	<dd class="hikashop_product_eigenschappen">
	<textarea id="product_eigenschappen" style="width:100%" cols="35" rows="2" name="data[product][eigenschappen]"><?php echo $this->product->eigenschappen; ?></textarea>
	</dd>
</dl>

Now this will show it as just a textarea. My question is how can i show the textarea with the WYSIWYG editor and that it will also safe the content.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rogier

Hi,

Why not create a custom field of the table "product" and of the type "wysiwyg" ?
That would display a HTML editor on the product edition page automatically for you.
With custom coding, it's not that easy to include a HTML editor.
You have such code:

But then you need extra coding for the variants, handling different type of editors, etc).
I would recommend to use just a custom field instead of trying to use your own code.

Hi Nicolas,
Apologies for the late response. I got it too work.
I understand what you are saying. What i did was make a single block for json informatie. So i moved fields around. Otherwise they are all in one column and this way easier to seperate the json fields from the custom fields for the shop.
