This may have happened in one of the upgrades, but I just noticed that the admin/store/settings/products page only contains the product settings (display widget, and whether qty field is allowed in the cart form). I can't get access to editing fields, features and kits (as I see should be possible on the Ubercart demo site). There is a single menu entry under "Product" - and it is empty, and has no link, so obviously something is wrong. Trying direct admin/store/settings/products/edit/fields link doesn't take me anywhere. This is the admin user, so privileges should not be the problem (and I did check them).

Can you please recommend where I should look? I am on 7.x-3.0-beta4, should I upgrade to dev? Or is it something unrelated?

I would really appreciate any help here.

What is it you would like to accomplish?

I see the same as what you're seeing on "admin/store/settings/products" and I believe its normal.

If you don't have uc_product_kit, uc_attribute, uc_file, or uc_roles enabled, then there will be only one vertical tab called "Product settings" on the page at admin/store/settings/products. Each one of those other modules will add a new vertical tab below the "Product settings" tab. That isn't a "menu", it's a tab label. Perhaps the theme's vertical tabs style doesn't make this apparent if there's only one tab to show. The Ubercart demo store is running a D6 version of Ubercart. The 7.x version has a lot of changes, and will not look the same.

@Gemini Lights and @TR, thanks for replying. I expect to be able to edit the product fields (these are different from attributes, as I understand) - both the ones included by default, and add new ones. I checked the product material type, and can see that CCK is not used for doing this - so, while I could use CCK, I'd like to use the same mechanism as in the default product fields.

On the other hand, if the existing fields are added by the various modules, and I should use CCK for my fields - please let me know.

As I understand, configuring fields has nothing to do with uc_product_kit, uc_attribute, uc_file, or uc_roles functionality.

PS Is there perhaps a live demo of the 7.x version somewhere, to see how it should look?

There is no "CCK" in Drupal 7. You can control the product fields such as SKU, prices, weight, dimensions etc. at /admin/structure/types/manage/product/display

@longwave - that's what I meant when I mentioned checking the product type in #3. Is this this the recommended (if not only?) approach for creating custom product fields?

For example, I have dimensions on the product page, and in material type "Display" tab (/admin/structure/types/manage/product/display), yet I can't find where they are actually configured - i.e. to delete them, to change their name, to add another one etc.

Sorry if I am confusing (or confused).

PS So nobody calls it CCK anymore, really? :)

The default dimensions fields are always present on products, as this data is used for shipping calculations (by some shipping modules, anyway). You can add more fields as needed, or ignore the default ones and add any other fields you need through the same interface.

Thanks for the support, I've used material type fields to add the necessary product information.
