adding and changing product atrributes/values that are displayed...

[templar1973]

I am new to eCommerce, in general, and osCommerce so please excuse my ignorance. I am attempting to make changes to the fields displayed with my products. The default site has certain field like 'product model' that are in the product edit mode.

 

How do I change these entry boxes and display fields to say what I need?

 

Can I achieve this through the admin>configuration, a contribution, or do I need to do it through code changes?

 

Any help would be appreciated?

 

Thanks,

Ed

In admin>> configuration>> product listing>> you can change some of the information and their respective orders. If you are going to use MODEL for something else like..SKU # , you will need to make changes to the language definition files. ( /includes/languages/english.php or /includes/languages/english/ _________.php

Thanks to both of you. I will be reading the Knowledge base while I am looking for the files to change.

Chris,

 

I went to the location as specified and the file 'index.php' I found where I could change the individual headers. However, I do not know if this is what I need to change. I was referring in the original question to the data entry mode when you add a new product. By default, it has a box to enter data labeled 'product model:' I want to be able to redesignate this box as something different or add more data entry fields. And have those entries appear in the store, on both the initial product listing page and the detailed page, once you dbl click the item.

 

I also checked the products_new.php file but this doesn't seem to contain the info I was asking about.

 

Can you offer any more suggestions or locations to find this?

 

Thanks.
