    I am trying to edit a short code so that one of the variables produces a text box. I am creating an area on my website where members of our club can purchase club polo shirts in a variety of sizes and colours. I also want people to be able to add that they want a name on the shirt with an area for them to type the name in for each product they order.
    So far I have the following shortcode [wp_cart_button name=”Junior Polo Shirt” price=”6.00″ var1=” Size|Small|Medium|Large|XL|XXL” var2=”Colour|Bottle Green|White”] but I am struggling to adda text area.
    I can’t see anywhere in the documentation on how to do it.

    If anybody can help I would appreciate it.

    Hi there is perhaps another way for you to achieve your goal. Click on the following URL navigate to the following part of the post “How to Collect Special Instructions from the Customer”.

    Let me know if that is a better option for you.

    Kind regards

    Hi. I thought about using that but the only problem is that if anybody is ordering several shirts in different sizes and different colours and wanting a different name on each shirt, it starts to get a bit messey and instructions can easily be mis-read. As a devoted lifetime pessimist I am trying to avoid things going wrong in the order process because I know they will.
    I might give up on the idea of using this plugin and if anybody can recommend a free plugin that allows somebody placing an order to choose the Size, Colour, and what name they want embrodering on to the shirt I would be very greatful.

    Thanks for the suggestion.
