Product Options in Admin
Posted: Thu Aug 11, 2016 10:29 pm
Hello all,
I'm new to OpenCart, and I have a problem I'm hoping someone can help me out with.
I am using Version 2.3.0.2.
When I set up a product in the admin section, and go to the Options tab, there is a box on the left that allows me to add an option to a product. The problem is that not all of the options are displayed within this dropdown. For example, It only shows "Radio", "Checkbox", "Date", "Date & Time", and "Delivery Date". It does not display options like "Text", "Text Area", "File", or any options that I create. How do I get this dropdown to show all the available options to associate with a product?
I need to be able to allow the end user to be able to type in their last name, and since I can't make a dropdown for all last names known to man, I need to be able to allow them to enter it themselves. I contacted the OpenCart support and they gave me a link for extensions, but the extensions do not do this. They only allow to give more description fields on the front end.
I have found a way to manually associate the options with a product within PHP MyAdmin, but manually doing this is really undesirable. How can I get this dropdown in the admin section to show all the options so I can associate them with a product?
