Custom Product Fields on Upsell (OUS1)

[lesliekirk]

Is it possible to use Custom Product Fields on the Upsell screens?

Should be...as in i think the same function to call the product is used in upsell as it is anywhere else. (You might be confusing this with the basket issues cause Merchant pulls data natively from the Basket(s) tables, but in this cause its coming from Product(s)

Okie dokie, so I tried using:

<mvt:if expr="NOT ISNULL l.settings:product:customfield_values:customfields:ShortDesc">
                <p>&mvt:product:customfield_values:customfields:ShortDesc;</p>
                </mvt:if>

no dice. So I thought I would try the Toolkit (two versions) snippet:

 <mvt:item name="toolkit" param="custom|desc|l.all_settings:item:product_id|ShortDesc" />
<mvt:if expr="g.desc">
&mvte:global:desc;
</mvt:if>

 <mvt:item name="toolkit" param="custom|desc|l.all_settings:item:upsale_id|ShortDesc" />
<mvt:if expr="g.desc">
&mvte:global:desc;
</mvt:if>

Neither of those worked. Any other ideas?

Thanks!

try using:

l.settings:upsale:customfield_values:customfields: ShortDesc

and

l.settings(or all_settings):updale:id

or

l.settings(or all_settings):updale:code

if you can look things up via code...(or run a variable checker on the page.)

Yeah, I'm totally clueless on this one. I think it's going to have to use the Toolkit to pull it in because the screen doesn't use the product layout tab that lets you assign a custom field.

Had to add the product_display item, then it worked great. Used Kemper Strategic's Miva Merchant Variables & Entities module to help ferret it all out.

Leslie, I'm trying to do the same thing... what was it you did that worked?

Click the Items tab for the page and assign product_display

Leslie, Did this work for you after you enabled the product_display item:

&mvt:product:customfield_values:customfields:mycus tomfield;

Or did you have to use toolkit?

I would use the new custom field capabilities which do not require the custom field be assigned to a given page/display: http://www.mivamerchant.com/videos/a...-documentation

One less thing to rely on a 3rd party module for.

Leslie, we have a new version of the variables and entities module which also includes ip based test orders. (and it's still free) Feel free to reach out and grab a copy.
