Product Template Customer Field - Name field?

Post by ZLA » Wed May 20, 2009 8:24 am

When adding text box customer fields, I can specify Name, Prompt, Columns and Max Length.

How is Name field used? I know it helps the admin user to differentiate between multiple customer fields within a template. But does the Name field appear anywhere on the Customer side? I know the required fields customization (viewtopic.php?f=42&t=7154) showed how it can be used in the validation message but I wondering if AC itself displays the Name field anywhere.

Thanks.

AbleCommerce is making use of prompt field for display purpose. You will need to modify code to show field name.

I ended up with a solution that didn't require the customer field name being a specific name, just in case the Name value was used anywhere by AC. But it's good to know it's just the prompt that's used by default. Thanks.
