Just like the title says. I want the basket to show the custom field Part # in place of the standard Product Code. I have the title changed, but can't get the code to cooperate. I know I need to change the line of
<mvt:item name="fonts" param="body_font">
<a href="&mvt:global:sessionurl;Screen=PROD&Store_Code=&mvta:global:Store_Code;&Product_Code=&mvta:item:code;">&mvt:item:code;</a>
</mvt:item>
and I have tried by substituting the
&mvt:item:code;
piece with
&mvt:product:customfield_values:customfields:PRT;
but I only get blank space.

Please help?

You need the toolkit to display custom fields in the basket. Be aware though that your emails will show the code unless you are using an email module.

You can use the mail manager to get the custom fields in the emails.

Sorry, Bill - just sent you an email and forgot to ask this. I think I may be figuring this out.

There's a part in the directions reading:

You can further specify the product code and one attribute/option value. For example:
ABC123|Version|4^
XYZ123|Size|M^
EXTERNAL|Vendor|Acme^

So, if I want the email to generate for all products, I use the asterisk "*" symbol. Would I use ( *|Part # ) to have all products with custom field Part #?

Just trying to figure this one out.

Thanks.

No. Custom fields are not attributes or options. The feature to only send for specific products has the ability to only do it with a specific option value. That has nothing to do with custom fields. If you are trying to limit to specific products, the part number is irrelevant. It is the product code you put there and don't worry about options.
