This informtation in optional. Not every store needs it.
-
Additionally, as I understand those fields they are actually used for calculating shipping costs in some configurations.

Absolutely right.

but i need this so where that can enable?

If you wish the information in those fields to be shown somewhere, perhaps on your product description, you will need to edit the template to pull in those fields from the database.
There is no switch setting within the cart to display those fields anywhere.
If you wish additional information - you will need to provide more details as to where you want it to show and what you want to show. Then someone may be able to get you to the correct area to alter your code.

I want to get this information to appear in the product multiplied
I thought that they will automatically appear like everyone else
like price and others there that is same place what price and others
and in general the products which are described
-
As Lee said, to display that info, you'll need to modify the php in the product.tpl page.

Okay and what is that right code then?

You are going to need to pay someone to do it for you if you don't know how. PM abantecart and ask how much of a donation it will take to get that page modified.

Those fields are used to calculate shipping charges and are not designed to show on the product page.

In the same way that the cost of your product on the page doesn't show to your customer only the price you sell for is shown or the rather the tax box is checked or unchecked etc.
Not everything on the product edit page is for the customer to see directly. Some information is for you the seller, and for handling various functions for your customer.

okay thanks

just to be sure you understand - that information is in the database and if you or some one you hire wants to change the coding on the style sheet to show those additional fields you can do that. But it is not a cart function switch currently.
Do remember that any code changes you make may be overwritten when you update with new versions. So if you change a code, know where and what you did and then check on the new version and see if you need to make it again.

Absolutely right Lee. Stylesheets are usually not changed, but core files, controller files and templates files are often changed with upgrades.
That is why you still see some folks running .5 or .6. They have made extensive mods to their cart and don't want them undone with an upgrade.
