Hi people

Im making a site with bikes and am trying to make a custom product field with the option to type in a text and choose an option.

For example i would the custom product field to be named "Frame" i want  the customer to be able to type in "Some frame type" and choose "highlight". The choose part could be a checkbox or selectbox.

Is this possible in any way?

Hi

Do you want the customer to write a custom text that should follow the product to the order (cart)?

I guess it's order line fields that you need:
http://manual.dynamicweb-cms.com/Dynamicweb-On-line-Manual/Management-Center/eCommerce-settings/Orders/Order-line-fields/How-to-use-order-line-fields.aspx

With these fields you can create a custom field (e.g. text field) and show this field on a product page. The customer is able to fill this field and add the product to cart. The product is added to the cart together with the information from the custom order line field. When the order is completed the order line field is saved/visible on the order in backend.

I hope that this is what you are looking for.

Kind regards,
Merethe

Ahh no sorry, I guess I was unclear.

I want OUR customer to be able to fill in text and the choice in the eCom backend. So our customer fills out the data on the bike, he types in the kind of frame that is on the bike and he chooses if the frame is a highlight on the bike.

From this data I will make a short list of highlight specs, and a larger list of all the specs of the bike.

Makes sense?

Not sure that what I wanted to do was even possible, so i solved it by using two input boxes and some extra if statements.

Thanks though.
