Custom field - required but if added to cart, isnt

Hi

We have a custom field added to a sub-category called Tags. The custom field is called "IAR Numbers" - you can see the product layout here aaa.wirthconsulting.com.au/merchandise-s.../14-replacement-tags

We have set this custom field as "required".

However on the product category page aaa.wirthconsulting.com.au/merchandise-services/online-shop the user can add the item to their cart directly. This effectively skips the "required" field and they can checkout without providing the information we need for that product.

I checked out other forum postings about adding a custom field to orders but it doesn't apply on a per product basis (this custom field should only appear for 1 product).

Any suggestions on how to get around this?

thanks,
Bianca

Hi,

I don't see any difference between the two pages.
Could you give us a test account ?

Sorry - the fields/add to cart don't appear unless the user has a specific level of access.

Here are the screenshots:

Brilliant! Thanks Nicolas
