thanks for developing a pure cck pane for Ubercart. much appreciated.

One thing I came across though, it seems that multigroups in cck are not picked-up in the checkout pane. Is there any chance this will be implemented?
I can see this as a useful extension of the standard pane system of ubercart.

In my case, I need to allow the user to add X names to the order. The only way I can see this to work is by using multigroups.

I ran into a similar issue. Instead of using Multigroup I've used a standard fieldgroup. All the other fields show up except this.

I noticed too that one can use the standard fieldgroup, but this only allows to list multiple fields (without any grouping).
What I'd like to do is to allow the customer to add multiple fieldset like:
1. First Name, Last Name
2. First Name, Last Name
3. First Name, Last Name
...

Did anyone try to get this done in Ubercart Checkout?

I added a multigroup fieldset and tried as well and can confirm it does not appear in the UC Pane.

hmm, you are using CCK 3 I assume? I haven't ported the module to work with CCK 3 yet I'm afraid, so several functionalities provided there might not be working..

on a side note - I would highly discourage the use of fieldsets (fieldgroup fields) in CCK panes, firstly because Ubercart already has a fieldset structure on the checkout screen and secondly because it used to have some processing issue (I think those are gone now, but as you can see from the module's homepage, it still states that fieldsets are not supported, or at the very least highly discouraged)

Cheers

Yes sir, I'm using CCK 3. I don't mind not using fieldsets or multigroups but how then do we segmentise fields in the UC panes? In my opinion, aesthetically it looks cleaner when certain fields are grouped together. It would be great if there's a workaround for this.

Hi again,

sorry for the delay in this, but I'm rather swamped with everything. This feature will be available when I get around to porting the module to CCK3, though porting it to D7 is of higher priority tbh, so.. can't promise anything time-wise. (Porting to D6 CCK3 should be easier though.. so I'll try to take a look someday soon).
