User entry fields needed

[landed]

I am looking for a way to take key information at order time such as date and text field information from the customer.
I would prefer not to do this at the time of checkout but I guess that would be ok. I added some fields but the tabs thing at the bottom, people don't tend to see or use them and I need some required fields. I don't want to lose sales because JS blocks moving on due to a field they can't see red error message on.

Hope this system allows this. Thank you.

Hi,

- you can add fields to Product attributes, so such data will be set for each product
- you can add custom fields for User address - so such data will be set when editing user address
- or you can write some description and let the users to add such information into last form field in checkout: "Notes and requests about order"

Thanks- can you get me started on this one:
"you can add fields to Product attributes, so such data will be set for each product" - can the customer enter data?

Is it possible to place fields in each product such as calendar date picker. I did not manage to get this working. I see that it goes into a tab, but the fields are read-only. I also don't want them in a tab.

Can the end checkout: "Notes and requests about order" field be made a required field? Then I think it will work.

Hi, there is no such option to set the notes field as required so this needs to be customized directly in html/php

There is certainly a lack of functionality in my case around this. For a particular product the user may need to send some information. If this is on the billing section then it applies to any order and may not make sense. So I would love to get a solution around this. Are there any plugin developers for this here?

Would there be a way to include fields from a convert forms form in the product description? Normally these get emailed of course however if we could get this field data in the final order it would be very powerful.

Hi, I don't know convert forms, so really no idea if there can be some connection.

I think any way or option to allow users to have editable fields in a per product basis is an important function. Consider booking and calendar type of services.

Hi, as written above, this is possible per attribute options (you can set input for field for each product)
