Title: Multiple text-style custom fields
Post by: Tomi on January 03, 2012, 14:26:03 PM
Hey all,

I'm trying to use multiple custom fields of the same type (text). For example if somebody wants to customize a product with his first and his last name (– where the two input-fields are separate).

If I'm using two custom fields of this type, only one inputbox shows up (the first). If I delete the first, the secont one show up correctly?! I can't get them work both together :(

Is this a bug? Or does someone have a solution for this?

Thanks and greetings - Tomi

It is meant that way, just create a new custom field of the same type...

for example description front, description back,...

Yep, I did it this way. Two custom text fields defined (Screenshot 1) and used them separately (Screenshot 2).

The result shows only the first custom field, the second one disappears (Screenshot 3).


PS: the text length on the second Screenshot automatically turns to zero, as soon as i save the product...

Title: Multiple text-style custom fields - still no solution?

Hi there

I still have the same question – wondering if somebody has found a solution?

As you can see in the screenshot, the second input field's missed.

Hints highly appreciated  :-[
