Virtuemart Required Custom Fields

How can I make a VirtueMart custom field required?

Thanks to Virtuemart, you can quite easily setup an eCommerce website using Joomla as the driving force behind your new website venture. VirtueMart does not come with the ability to prevent an item from being added to the shopping cart, based on the buyer entering information into the required Custom Field/ Product Attribute.

The “Required Custom Field” plugin for Virtuemart simply solves this problem!

You can choose to have every Custom Field, or specific Fields, required before the product or service you are selling can be added to the shopping cart. This is the professional choice to guide your buyers to order correctly, and to prevent wasted time in requesting missing order details from your clients.

The professional double check for correct ordering

If you have incorporated a custom field into Virtuemart requiring a user to communicate information about their order, then the Virtuemart Required Custom Fields plugin is right for your website. When you create your custom fields, a new option is available that asks if the Field/ Cart attribute is Required. Meaning, should Virtuemart block the item from being added to the cart until the buyer completes the required information. When the buyer selects the “add to cart” button, a visual invalid entry will be presented to the buyer promoting them for the information. This plugin for Virtuemart will effectively ensure all orders are submitted correctly and will save you the hassle of contacting your client for the missing information. It will also mean that since the order was placed correctly, all the attributes will be associated on the client’s receipt, your invoice and more importantly correct order history.
