In this tutorial we are going to show you how to copy an existing controller and we are going to use the product_edit_item "product edit page" as an example, and we are going to associate it to a custom product type.

By creating or modifying existing controllers, it will give you the possibility to present each types with different information appropriate to each one of them.

For instance, if you have two product types you can show/hide fields or tabs base on the type selected so that each product types are unique and more personalize.

  • From the admin panel, navigate to jDesign > Controllers
  • Makes sure to copy the controllers where the view is being used. For example, the "product_edit_item" view is used in the following pages;

product.add: when you create a product
product.edit: When you edit a product
product.presave: when the product is automatically save when you open it

  • Once you've copied the controller, edit it and change the following:
    • Rename the controller to the name that is easy for you to remember. Do not remove the default controller, simply add [ -new name ] to the existing one e.g from "product" to "product-services"
      Assign a new view if you have created one.
    • Click [Save] to save your changes
