Help...Custom Product Template

Post by zarana »

I need help with the code for a custom product template that has multiple drop down options AND divided text fields.

The cookbook only shows code for the multiple-divided text fields, but not the option for drop downs too. Just says you have to "adjust" the form for that too! No, really?!? haha.

Thanks for any help.

Did you try using the tags that output the order options?
[-- Order_Option_Menu Line --] Puts them on a single row

[-- Order_Option_Menu Column --] Stacks them one on top another.

I've edited the template, got the multiple text fields to show up, but it then doesn't post to the shopping cart correctly.

The pull down menu shows up there again, and not just putting the color choice and then the text entered does not show up.

You can see the test product here http://www.i-bead.com/test.html and add it to the shopping cart to see what happens.

Also, I can't find this option when I go to the settings:

Commerce Setup > Order System > Shopping Cart, and check the checkbox to specify that the 'customer text entry can not be changed'

to check this box, it doesn't exist. I have version Manager 9.0

If you view the source of that page you will see that you have a form nested inside another form. This is probably why the submit isn't working properly. Try cleaning up the template so you only have one form that includes all the input and select fields.

The field 'customer text entry can not be changed' is a Pro only feature so it won't be in a manager store.
