Alternate Product Name

Postby sundropcrystal » Tue Mar 05, 2013 7:18 am

Just a note for Shopsite:
Shopsite, it would be wonderful to have the ability to use an
alternate name for the products, so that there could be one for ADMIN and
one to APPEAR on the website. I am setting up new products, all from the
same vendor. *WOO_Crystal Fantasy Hummingbird* is one of the new products.
Obviously I can't use this on the website for the shoppers to see. So I
will have to make my own links to the More Info Page for the product names............. Aargh.
I did this in the past for another series of products, the Carson windchimes (all
products start with cp for carson products...). Even after doing this, the product list is all
nice and neat and my products live together and are easy for me to find and work on. HOWEVER,
the "ADMIN" product name appears in the shopping cart, etc. The PAGES have their HTML name and their public name,
and the products should have the same.

Just use one of the extra product fields for the Admin name. Then when you are in the backoffice, and want to work with the products, search for the Extra Field instead of the Name. Doing that would display the Admin name a - and the actual product name in the list of products.
