EcomProduct Not updating custom fields in Language Versions

We are using Dynamicweb.dll 8.0.1.5, updating an older site, adding a stand alone Norwegian site alongside the current English version. This is not a language layer under the English site. We are using the Ecommerce system and localising Products to Norwegian. We have setup Languages in the site and Ecommerce. Each Product has about 10 Custom Fields.

We are finding that when we update a localised product all products' custom fields get updated with the same values. So in the db if we have:

ProductID = 'PROD8' AND ProductLanguageID='LANG1'

ProductID = 'PROD8' AND ProductLanguageID='LANG2'

It seems to ignore AND ProductLanguageID='LANG*' so all PROD8's Custom Fields get updated. This does not happen with standard fields.

Is this a known bug for this DW Version and would an upgrade solve this, or am I doing something wrong with the setup?

Hi Kevin

Take a look at how you can configurate how your product fields gets updated across languages and variants:

Hi Nicolai, thanks for this. This feature seems not available to me in version 8.0.1.5, but I have it in another solution Im building 8.5.1.25.

Do I need to add another eCommerce module to my 8.0.1.5 or is it just not available in this version?

OK my fault... I had eCommerce Standard and Dynamicweb Professional active in my Module configuration so didnt get all module options for eCommerce. Also no eCommerce Internationisation module option to select.

 Added this and logged back in and I have this now available Advanced Configuration > Language.

Ill see how I get on with this, thanks for your quick response, and congrats on your new and slowly improving documentation resouces

Hi Kevin

Not sure - I believe it was there always, but maybe not for custom fields. You need an update...
