“I want to add some custom fields in Product Edit pages in Magento 2”. I see that is quite important demand when you desire to use extra information on your pages which the default system does not include. If you are also facing this problem, here is the proper solution for you. The post today provides two steps to successfully add custom fields to Product Edit page in Magento 2.
Overview of adding custom fields in Product Edit pages in Magento 2
Though Magento 2 already supports additional product attributes, sometimes you will need to add special data for a certain product only. This requires an extra process of adding custom fields to the product page.
Steps to add custom fields to the product edit page:
- Step 1: Generate UI Component
- Step 2: Insert
Manage Notes
section in Product form (product_form.xml
)
Step 1: Generate UI Component
Run the command in your module to generate UI component
/app/code/Mageplaza/HelloWorld/view/adminhtml/ui_component/product_form.xml
Step 2: Insert Manage Notes
section in Product form (product_form.xml
)
To insert Manage Notes
section, do the following:
- Use the code snippet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<form xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Ui:etc/ui_configuration.xsd">
<modal name="advanced_inventory_modal">
<fieldset name="manage_note">

<item name="config" xsi:type="array">

<item name="dataScope" xsi:type="string"/>
<item name="sortOrder" xsi:type="number">0</item>

<item name="dataScope" xsi:type="string"/>
<item name="sortOrder" xsi:type="number">100</item>
<item name="collapsible" xsi:type="boolean">true</item>
</item>
