Hidden product extra fields?

Hello there, i just switched to cs-cart and i am amazed. I have one question, on some of my products i want a small images to appear which will say “Official Reseller” and on some other “Ship by mail”. On my last shop i used to do this with two hidden product extra fields, which when was equal to “Y” the image was appearing…



Is there any similar easy way to do this with 2-3 lines of code?

Hi GsmCorner, there’s actually this really neat addon that is free that lets you put messages on a per product basis just as you mentioned, the addon can be downloaded from ShippingKit here:

I use this on my website here:

Where it says “v2.1.2 Compatible” is what the addon does, you can add html, images and everything, give it a try - Sno

hm that is good, is it compatible with the latest version which got out before few days? Also (i ask you bcoz you use it), e.g i can place the code to make the images appear down of the product image? Also it says that appear on shopping cart page too, i can make it to appear only on product page?



to give you idea how i want to make it look like, look on my currect site (i am now switching to cscart): [url]http://www.gsmcorner.gr/cyclone_credits.html[/url]



look on the image “ship by mail” and “official reseller”

Great Find!



This mod should be useful for displaying all kinds of different product or category specific information (not just shipping specific messages), especially considering the output text (or image) can most likely be placed most anywhere on the page with a template tweak. Just think of all the ways this can be used. :wink:

it works with the latest version which came out before few days? and it can be placed anywhere? e.g under the product image?

I used it but it seemed to slow my site down considerably, I didnt do any thorough teste but after reinstalling and then uninstalling a couple of times I found it slowed when on.

hm:/ So you think i should not use it? any other way to do what i said? (the mod works for latest version?)

No, I didnt want to put you off. Try it and if you think it slows you down too much then make your decision. You can always uninstall in a second.
