    adding extra fields to order process & other query

    Hi there, we've had a proposal come in from a prospective client wanting us to make them an ecommerce site. We are considering using Actinic 7 for the site's build.They would like the following functionality, but we're not 100% if we can get it out of Actinic:

    - Information collection (at payment stage) e.g. age of child, how they found the site etc.

    Can I add any little questions like they ask for above to one of the order pages e.g. when they pick payment method or enter address? Probably just a couple of text fields or a drop down menu maybe.

    Also, they want the following:

    - Ability for visitors to upload comments to site e.g. review of product (aka Amazon etc)

    I've used Actinic 6 a lot but not 7. Is this a feature you can do in 7? Or is it a little bit out of the product's range of functionality?

    Any pointers on the 2 above questions would be brilliant.

    To collect general information at checkout you are provided with 3 default fields which can be amended to use radio buttons, drop down boxes or other form inputs. It may be possible to create more, though it is something I am not sure of.

    The comments system would need to be a separate script, but you will easily find a partner who will create one for you. I have added various tell a friend scripts, etc to Actinic sites, not difficult but they don't come as default.
