Hi, I recently saw a contribution which I am now struggling to find.

 

Basically what it did was let you write a summary up of a group of items which all had the same properties such as a group of items in a range of furniture.

 

So say I was selling jali Indian furniture, I would do a write up on the type/style/wood etc of the furniture in the heading of the category so as not to have the same thing written for every page of every item in that range. So if the wood was sheesham this would be mentioned in the category heading and not be mentioned in all the product listings for that group.

 

I should have saved the page or contribution but thought I would come back to it later and later has turned into a few weeks and I have spent the last few hours looking so if anyone knows what this contribution is called or knows a link to it I would be most grateful.

 

I hope this makes sense.

 

Thanks

 

Michael

For anyone who is interested I have tracked down this contribution. The contribution number is 4668. The link is:

 

http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/4668

 

This contribution will allow you to add a text information box to the top of a subcategory page.

 

This allows you to give general information about a product range, rather than duplicating information within the product page. You also get:

 

1. Textbox descriptions stored in database table.

2. Full admin control to allow adding / editing / deleting textbox contents.

3. Ability to switch off textboxes globally - allows you to add your copy before going 'live'

4. Ability to customise amount of textbox text previewed on the admin page.

5. Protection against overwriting existing textbox contents.

 

Thanks
