Re: Custom Order Attribute

[Marconius Cuthemustard]

I think the best way to set this up is through products instead of through the order. For instance, you can create a product called 'embroidery' that you display on other product pages, cart, or whatever. You have to figure out the implementation details though. How to link the embroidery to the product to be embroidered, how and where to include an extra field for the customer to enter the text ... etc. Don't know how they work, but you may find your answer in the `custom` product module.

I need to add an order-specific textfield that would allow users to supply text for custom embroidery on a product. This modification would result in an increased price at checkout. I've already added a few option groups (colors, sizes, etc), but this customization would not depend upon inventory.

Any tips, pointers or resources on how to go about this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Thanks for the response, Marconius. I spent some time researching the Custom Products yesterday, but the specific products in question all have inventory-dependent variations created via the ConfigurableProduct class that I can't afford to give up. Right now I'm looking into some of the signals provided to see if I can't piggy-back a custom Product extension class on to the product pages / checkout.
