    Hi

    I have another feature request:

    I have a custom field named “suggested price” where i use the slug “suggested-price” to use as a shortcode in my product description.
    Now i want to print out the label of the custom field together with the value. So i have to use this in my product description:

    suggested price: [suggested-price]

    I think it would be nice to have for every custom field an automatically created shortcode [xxx-label] that prints out the label of the custom field. This would make the following possible:

    [suggested-price-label] [suggested-price]

    What do you think?

    Best,
    Thomas

    Hi Thomas,

    It seems like a bit of a pointless option. The label would be the same for all products anyways, and would just lead to extra processing time for the string matching.

    There’s nothing that makes typing [suggested-price-label] easier to type than suggested price really.

    OK if you think that will slow down the processing. I just thought it would be useful, because it makes the description more flexible (and you just need to define the custom field so you have the label and the values).

    Best,
