Extra input/config field for a customer when buying an item ?

[educasoft]

Hi,

 

I am learning how to use prestashop (which looks not too difficult fortunately)

 

However, the shop I want to make has some kind of personalisation to the items.

 

For example, I will sell wooden plaques with a name engraved in it, or ... sell your name cut out of wood.

 

 

I don't see how I can let my customers add this information to their order.

 

 

For example suppose I have in my product list 1 product called "wood rectangle 5x5cm"

 

A customer would have to be able to select this product (simple), add a quantity of for example 3 pieces (simple) and fill out another text field where he enters the name to be engraved (and that is what I don't know how to do)

 

 

Could somebody tell me please if thats possible somehow ?

 

 

Kind regards,

Bart

On Admin Panel.

Select Your Product "wood rectangle 5x5cm" (From menu Catalog->Products).

Click to Tab Customization. Put 1 to field Text fields:. Then click "Save". After that move back to this product and customization tab. You can also set label and make field required if needed.

ok thank you.

 

So if my rectangle would cost €5 with without engraving and €10 with engraving, I have to create 2 products (1 with €5 and not customisation) and 1 with price €10 and required field for customisation.

 

These need to be 2 different products in prestashop? or can I just do that like 1 product with the option (at higher price) to customise ?

 

 

Currently I think I'll need 2 products to achieve that.

Unfortunately you need 2 products.
