Product Options Custom Field Dropbox Plugin (Updated)

[PRO]

Hi BanquetTables.pro,

How can we sort the dropbox plugin when there are two or more? Actually I use up to three dropbox plugin in my products' custom fields, but I cannot figure out how to have them in the same order. Sometimes on "Save" VM2 reverses the order (the last one added become the first one displayed), and sometimes not... I would like a way to display them always in the same order (for example: colour, size, gift wrap). Any hints?

I think you might be able to "group" them,

Otherwise, i think they are displayed by the actual customfield ID

Grouping, that's using a parent custom field. Just tried now, with no changes. I again entered values in the "ordering" column, for these "grouped" custom fields, same thing...
So a work around would be to have the custom fields ID in this order, so... the one annoying me should come last (gift wrapping), but is present on all products  But if I need another custom field later, the last created will come last in the layout, and here we go again... At least I have a quick fix now, thank you BanquetTables.pro ! (I still don't know your given name)

Any idea on how sorting them in the view, so template override would work? Or hacking the helper file?

I posted my solution for customfield ordering here:  http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=90362.msg354017#msg354017 
It requires a core hack, but seems to be a permanent fix for output of custom fields by the user-entered order.


On to my question -

BanquetTables, is it possible to define one of the values in the list as the default-default?  For example, I have a list of years as a custom field.  I would like to include years going back to 2004, but I would prefer for 2013 to be the default that is shown when no year is selected.

1st 1 is default

Yep, I noticed that the first one would be the default. 

I was hoping there might be a way to have a different item be the default.  In Custom Attributes Extended for VM 1, you could indicate a default in the middle of the list by using an asterisk next to the item.  I just wanted to check to be sure I wasn't missing something similar here. 

Thanks

Hi, can anyone help me format the custom field display on PayPal checkout?

Currently it is showing this:           
            Stripe
            Item number: L011001{"8":{"drop...L011001{"8":{"drop":{"custom_drop":" Blue"}}}
            Item price: $9.99
            Quantity: 1

I would like the Item number to display as: L011001 - Blue

Would very much appreciate help.

Hi,

loving Product Options Custom Field Dropbox Plugin! one issue is that it may be breaking the modal window.

anyone any ideas? pullin hair...lol

~~~~~~~~~~ISSUE~~~~~~~~~~~
- we have added custom attributes;
  1) in the product itself
  2) and by hacking VM core to add 2 attribute types
   (MY_NEW_CUSTOM_FIELD_FOR_CHECKBOX)
- for some reason the attributes are blocking the modal functionality on the "add to cart" click
* the modal works otherwise, so we deduce is caused by either attributes we've added to the VM product page OR from the hack we did to provide a checkbox attribute

its NOT breaking the modal. There is NO JS added.

[andersen]

How can i remedy that? mucho appreciate Sir!

[PRO]

try and remove the "" from the custom field

22" x 22"

Change to 22 x 22

[andersen]

no go. i'm thinking it is either the field size, preventing overlay OR the custom fields i added...any other ideas? can i pay you for consulting? serious i want this fixed yesterday! {8~]

[PRO]

the regular product is not adding for me now.

I think you might have an HTACCESS problem.

WHAT SEF component are you using? The product urls are supposed to have a "suffix"

[andersen]

good point.

- i edited my own .htaccess for added security..(will message you)
- using Artio SEF and can add suffix to URL

FYI....you have access to backend! (will message you)

thanks
