Thanks for the useful feedback. I’ve poured 3+ years of my life into this software, and I’d love to keep improving it, so critical feedback is good. The custom field feature was tacked onto a release by user request, but I was working 3 jobs at the time, and the code suffered as a result. I’m back down to 2 jobs now, and am back to putting full time hours into wpStoreCart, so it’s about time the custom fields feature gets polished up to par with the rest of the product. To address each concern:
The area where you can create a custom field pops under so you cannot access it.
I could not recreate this issue, as the form appears above everything else for me under all my test environments. However, since this form uses jQuery UI, it’s pretty easy for you to have another plugin which changes the CSS z-index of jQuery UI forms, causing the issue you described. What I’ve done in wpStoreCart 4.3.0 is to try and over ride the CSS z-index of the form so that it won’t be affected by other plugins that provide jQuery UI CSS.
Since I could not recreate your issue, I can’t test if I fixed it, so I’ll be relying on you to let me know if my patch worked or not for your issue. If it did not work, please disable one plugin, then recheck if the issue is present. If the issue is no longer present after deactivating the plugin, then you have identified the plugin that is conflicting with wpStoreCart. If the issue is still present, then deactivate the next plugin, and repeat the process until you’ve identified the conflicting plugin. Then let me know, so I can fix the conflict.
If you had one in the past there is no way to edit it. You have to delete and make a new one.
Fixed in wpStoreCart 4.3.0
Ideally one should be able to make a custom field and be able to apply it to more than one product if you wanted to.
I’d use it for SKU numbers among other things. Unless of course the developer can get an SKU field in there for us.
I implemented this feature request. You can now clone your custom fields from other products in wpStoreCart 4.3.0.
Looking forward to your feedback and hopefully higher rating. Thanks again for the help. Hope you like the additions, and please let me know how it goes ??
