Hello,
I am new to ProductCart and I have the standard edition. I was wondering if there is a way to add another description area for Warranty information for each product. There is different warranty text for each product so I need it to be able to be editable per product. To make this just more difficult, I need to be able to add this description via .csv file so I can do large amount of changes to large amount of products and import it to ProductCart using the import wizard.
Is there anyone who has a solution for this? Or suggestions on what I can do to mimic this?
I apologize if there is already a solution somewhere in the forums that I have missed. If so, could you direct me to the correct post.
Thanks in advance,
mVisual

Hi, It involves a couple of edits and using HTML code in the long description, but having tabbed information looks like it will meet your needs very well, especially as you are going to import the data, which means you can simplify the creation of the HTML code for the long description with some smart use of a spreadsheet.

Hello,
Thanks for the fast reply.
When you say "some smart use of a spreadsheet," Do you mean I can just paste the html code inside of the cell corresponding to the product under the "long description" heading?
Thanks

Hi,
Most of the "Long Description" will be the same HTML repeated in each product. Because of this and to make my life easier I would put the static code in a few cells, the variable text in a couple of columns and then use a formula to build the final "Long Description".
Hi,
I would put the various segments of HTML and then build the full long description with a formula :
For example :-
<div class="TabbedPanels" id="TabbedPanels1">
<ul class="TabbedPanelsTabGroup">
<li class="TabbedPanelsTab">Details</li>
<li class="TabbedPanelsTab">Features</li>
<li class="TabbedPanelsTab">Gift Ideas</li>
</ul>
<div class="TabbedPanelsContentGroup">
<div class="TabbedPanelsContent">These are the product details</div>
<div class="TabbedPanelsContent">This is a list of features included in this product</div>
<div class="TabbedPanelsContent">Here are some ideas of what a wonderful gift this product can be</div>
</div>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var TabbedPanels1 = new Spry.Widget.TabbedPanels("TabbedPanels1");
</script>
|
could be built with the formula :
=$A$1&$A$2&C2&$A$3&$A$2&D2&$A$3&$A$2&E2&$A$3&$A$4
Where the contents are placed in the following cells:
A1
<div class="TabbedPanels" id="TabbedPanels1">
<ul class="TabbedPanelsTabGroup">
<li class="TabbedPanelsTab">Details</li>
<li class="TabbedPanelsTab">Features</li>
<li class="TabbedPanelsTab">Gift Ideas</li>
</ul>
<div class="TabbedPanelsContentGroup">
|
A2
<div class="TabbedPanelsContent">
|
A3
A4
<script type="text/javascript">
var TabbedPanels1 = new Spry.Widget.TabbedPanels("TabbedPanels1");
</script>
|
C2
These are the product details
|
D2
This is a list of features included in this product
|
E2
Here are some ideas of what a wonderful gift this product can be
|
This allows you to just enter the text for each "TAB" with no concerns over the actual HTML as this is wrapped around automatically by the formula.
Please note :- This is untested and just an example, I wrote it all direct on the forum.
You MAY need to copy the results of the formula and use "paste special" to extract the actual built values.
