Title: Custom fields vm3
Post by: oriolindoclima on December 02, 2014, 12:21:39 PM
Hello,

I am looking for some documentation of how to use custom fields correctly on VM 2.9.9g or 3. I have a lot of troubles trying options like string,child variant,... and also a lot of doubts of how to use it. I have read that I can try to install the sample data and try it myself, but I don't know how to do it. I think it could be a good idea if there is a good post about how to use it.

Thank you,

pd: especial thanks to all the dev team, that are continuously listening the needs and improving VM. GOOD JOB !

To install sample date:

Go to Configuration/Shop and under Advanced Settings turn on "Enable database Update tools"

Then go to Tools/Tools & Migration and hit the Reset all tables and install sample data button.

(This deletes any product data you have already entered)

Thanks jenkinhill, I have installed the VM sample data. All works good except the image display in the product view.  SEE THE PROBLEM: http://bit.ly/1CExqdj

That's a problem with your template overrides which probably need some updating to work with VM3
