Prob filling new fields

    I’ve created a new set of fields (weight, price2, price3, price4, price5). In Admin, I can save and retrieve them from postmeta. But their not getting picked up and added to $post_vars. I’ve gone thru all the references to $post_vars and the fields I created in the catablog/lib, but it’s still escaping me. I think it might be a query I missed. Could someone point me to where I should be looking? Thanx.

  • Hi websmythe can you elaborate a bit more on your issue. These fields that you create where did you create them? Did you use the built in mechanism from CataBlog or did you just create them yourself?

    Hi mbrsolution. A built-in “fields” mechanism in Catablog? Didn’t know there was one there. I’d heard about the addition of user fields in the Support forum here, but thot it was still under development.

    I’m using Catablog 1.6.6 on WP 3.9.3, cause I’m also using the Catablog Ordering (0.1.3) plugin for outputting an email Purchase Order, instead of a retail purchase checkout form. Catablog Ordering (0.1.3) only works with WP 3.5 to WP 3.9

    I created the fields myself by going through the code in the lib folder, mostly CataBlog.class.php and CataBlogItem.class.php, etc. I wanted the fields in postmeta so that they would be user editable. They are used to create item dependent price list, based on a set of quantities (1-4, 5-19, 20-49, 50-100, >100), for each item in Catablog.

    Hi websmythe I see what you want to achieve.

    However that is beyond the scope of this plugin. Your best bet is to ask the developer blog, @zach might provide more information in regards to your request.

    Thanks. Found it.

    Hi websmythe I am glad you found a solution ?? Well done. If you don’t mind can you share your solution just in case someone else might be trying to achieve the same as you. Can you mark this support thread as resolved.

    Thank you

    Don’t know what to say except that I had rechecked the CataBlog.clas.php and found that I hadn’t added the the new fields to what turned out to be the critical function for displaying them on the cart page.
