Hello windhunde,
Could you more specific and provide a little more details as to which fields you are talking about? you want the Custom fields to be hidden if they are blank? or you want to hide some other fields? Where do you want to hide these fields? Could you please clarify what you mean by Add Product form? Do you mean adding a product to the backend?
Best regards,
Sorry, let me be more clear.
There are numerous standard fields which we are not using, such as Price, Sale Price, and On Sale. To avoid errors in data entry, and simplify the effort, it would be nice to not show these fields at all when they are entered.
I can envision three possible approaches to this…
1. On the Products tab / Add New Products – Add Products Manually form: use custom .css attributes set to display: none for for fields we want to hide.
2. Create a new custom form to add product via backend.
3. Edit ProductsPage.php to comment out unwanted fields. (I see this as troublesome whenever you issue an update)
FWIW, we have the premium version.
I’m hoping you might have suggestions for accomplishing this.
Thanks,
Dan
Hello Dan,
Unfortunately, there is no option in the plugin that would allow you to do the 1st two options. However, have you ever used the spreadsheet to add products, it is convenient to import a spreadsheet using the import feature.
Also, you could remove the unwanted columns from the spreadsheet.
If you wish to have a template of the spreadsheet, you could just export your existing products and remove the columns that say (read-only).
Best regards,
