Split Up Custom Items in default.php

Hi,
I've spent a couple days on this now and all I can do is duplicate the entire block of custom items with as little as 2 lines of code my default.php Product Page.

I want to move only one specific field to the right part of the default.php. Although I did find some discussion about displaying custom items, there is not enough detail to get the right syntax for just the one row.

My custom field name is "includemyreturnaddress", it's id is 63 and it's a yes or no, with a "no" default. It might be just the way I am constructing the span id or the echo ... but i'm getting bupkas.

an example would be most appreciated and I'm sure I'll be able to apply the same method to the other fields as I don't want this field to repeat in the main part ...

Thanks in advance

Hi,

You can unpublish the custom field in the frontend, then edit the view displaying the product, generally "product / show_default" and add a code like:

<input id="includemyreturnaddress_yes" type="radio" onclick="hikashopToggleFields(this.value,'includemyreturnaddress','item',0);" value="yes" name="data[item][includemyreturnaddress]"></input>
<label for="includemyreturnaddress_yes">yes</label>
<input id="includemyreturnaddress_no" type="radio" onclick="hikashopToggleFields(this.value,'includemyreturnaddress','item',0);" value="no" name="data[item][includemyreturnaddress]"></input>
<label for="includemyreturnaddress_no">no</label>

Oh Thank You !
I cannot express a greater gratitude.

This works well for displaying the custom items before they get added to cart. My trouble is that the custom items don't get added to the cart view in step one. I've tried to make modifications to the checkout / custom_fields.php file so that the data entered is displayed in the cart, but to no avail. Since all published custom fields display no problem i tried changing the custom_fields.php file to include the unpublished fields, but that doesn't display these custom fields in the checkout or my syntax had no errors.

I also don't seem to get any validation happening either for "required" content, so I'm wondering if i have to use form tags in my code. In that's the case, there doesn't appear to be a form for the checkout in my views tab and i don't know what form i would be posting.

Sure would appreciate some hints. Thank you.

Hi,

Sorry, you have to let it published, add the code in the view and add some css to hide the default custom field.
You can use the css property:

.hikashop_product_custom_item_value_64{display:none;}

Ok, that works better for some fields. It started off with just one field and has expanded to the whole set.

If a textarea is required, my cart goes through a continuous loop and doesn't recognize the data that is entered by the user using the following code in my default.php. Hopefully you can spot the problem.

Additionally with textareas, I thought I might get the characters remaining to display using the following code, however that didn't pan out for me either, but I was just guessing based on the "onclick" syntax.

<textarea name="data[item][recipient]" id="recipient" rows="4" cols="45" onclick="hikashopToggleFields(this.value,'recipient','item',0);" onblur="hikashopTextCounter(this.value,'recipient_count','item',0);" onkeyup="hikashopTextCounter(this.value,'recipient_count','item',0);" ></textarea>

If i'm using a date field, the calendar does not become active whether i use the following code or if i change the type to "date" or "item" instead of text. It looks nice.

<label>Mail Later</label>
<input id="maillater" type="text" onchange="maillater_checkDate(1);" value="<?php echo date('Y-m-d'); ?>" name="data[item][maillater]" >
<img id="maillater_img" class="calendar" alt="Calendar" src="/media/system/images/calendar.png">

I would appreciate your suggestions. Thank you.

You all rock.

Oh man! I have all my custom item fields displaying EXACTLY as I want them now. The final code that worked for me was this:

<?php
$oneExtraField =& $this->itemFields;
$itemData = JRequest :: getString('item_data_includemyreturnaddress', $this->element->includemyreturnaddress);
?>
<td class="key">
<span id="hikashop_product_custom_item_name_includemyreturnaddress" class="hikashop_product_custom_item_name">
<?php echo $this->fieldsClass->getFieldName($oneExtraField);?>
</span>
</td>
<td>
<span id="hikashop_product_custom_item_value_includemyreturnaddress" class="hikashop_product_custom_item_value">
<?php
$onWhat='onchange';
if($oneExtraField->field_type=='radio')
$onWhat='onclick';
$oneExtraField->product_id = $this->element->product_id;
echo $this->fieldsClass->display($oneExtraField,$itemData,'data[item]',false,' '.$onWhat.'="hikashopToggleFields(this.value,\''.$fieldName.'\',\'item\',0);"');
?></span>
</td>
