New install, about 2/3 complete and I'm doing some display adjustments. I've done some looking in forum but have not seen a request that matchs. I need to add a column in the catalog list of products.it is set up as vocabulary/term/term/term/products...the page displays the products Name Price and Buy it now button. I need it to also show desc. I've worked with PHP,etc. But have'nt cracked open any of the files yet so I was hoping this was a feature I've not found yet. If not what file is trowing the code for this page view? The product name is linked but I need to show the desc on this page. I looked at the Views module but seems a bit overkill to just add a column in the view I'm getting now. I haven't looked at the Developer's Guide but was hoping this was a simple 'I over looked a config feature' deal.
There is no configuration for this... you'll need to use TAPIr to add a column to the product catalog table. I believe there are examples to check out... but I don't know where. 
However, I think the Views module is a great alternative and can handle this sort of thing quite simply. I'm just not sure what alternatives exist for the catalog block if you use a custom View instead.
I would say this post in particular: http://www.ubercart.org/forum/support/2458/add_sku_cart#comment-21537
Actually, I took a short cut. I'm kinda behind the 8ball so what I did was this. The products are manuals and the desc is the CEU hours so what I'm did was :
manuel name -CEU hours....in the name field. Just renamed with the desc in the name.
It's good to know someone's looking at posts........
