Adding new field to admin panel...

[mayers2007]

Added new product fields to the database, "make" and "model". These fields were added throughout the entire code. My search works great finding information in these fields. I even added the fields to the admin panel when inserting a new product although I'm using easy populate.

 

My problem is I want to turn these fields on within the description. In the admin panel under configuration there's a section called "Product Listing" which allows you to turn on certain fields but I can't seem to find which file controls this. Wanting to add "make" and "model" to this panel so I can choose to turn them on and off quickly.

 

Thanks in advance

the easyest wat to add configuration items is to use Total Configuration http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/5040

That gives you full control over all setting, allows you to add new ones & shows some that are 'hidden' by default.

Its a quick easy install.

 

You then need to edit index.php to use those added items, look how the existing work to see how to do that
