Customizing the product edit form fields in OpenCart
Custom Product Form module for customizing the form for editing products in OpenCart. With it, you can leave only those fields that are necessary in this form, and hide all the others.
There are many fields in the product form in OpenCart, of which, usually, the store administrator uses only a few basic ones. Therefore, it is worth thinking about optimizing this form in order to improve convenience and increase the speed of filling out the product catalog. After removing unnecessary fields from the form, it will be easier to find what you need.
Importantly! The module has its own product edit form templates, so other modules that change something in the product form will need to be adapted.
Features of the module:
hide product parameter fields in the add and edit form
hide unnecessary product form tabs;
display the form on one page (without tabs).
Custom Product Form does not replace any OpenCart system files, but works as a separate module that can be disabled at any time and revert to the standard product add form.
Module installation instructions:
Upload the module in the admin panel in the "Extensions" : "Install".
Go to the "Modifications" section and update the cache.
Go to the "Dashboard" section and update the template cache.
Go to the "Extensions" : "Extensions" : "Modules" and enable the module.
Edit module. Enable the status of the module and adjust all its options to your needs and save the settings.
Check module operation.
Bingo!

При активации модуля слетает текстовый редактор, точнее его оформление, к примеру вместо кнопок отцентровки текста и всей этой понели, пустое белое поле
The OpenCart team has officially presented release 3.0.5.0, which contains a significant package of fixes, code cleanup, and compatibility improvements with modern PHP versions.
On November 20, 2025, a new major release of PHP was published - version 8.5. PHP 8.5 introduces useful improvements, but requires a careful approach when integrating into existing OpenCart projects.
The simplest way to solve this problem is to create an OCMOD modification that automatically adds module_id to the OpenCart module settings.
