| Nov 15, 2013 at 3:10 | comment | added | vintorg | I think one of those two will do it. Probably _load(), since I'll want the data to be formatted if loading an object programmatically. | |
| Nov 15, 2013 at 1:58 | comment | added | leexonline | That's going to depend on where the data is being displayed. Through a node template or a view you can use field and views-field templates respectively. If you want to alter the data everywhere it's loaded, you might want to look at something like hook_entity_load or hook_entity_view. | |
| Nov 15, 2013 at 1:35 | comment | added | vintorg | I'm sorry, I'm not being clear. I know how to save the values to their corresponding entities. What I'm trying to do is modify the markup, pre-render, on the fly. | |

| Nov 15, 2013 at 0:42 | comment | added | vintorg | The values are saved, and exist in the entity (a commerce product entity). They have been butchered, and there are too many of them. So, I need to modify them pre-render to clean them up. | |
| Nov 15, 2013 at 0:16 | comment | added | leexonline | The values are not already saved, that's why the function is called 'presave' and the description states: "This hook is invoked from node_save() before the node is saved to the database." | |
| Nov 15, 2013 at 0:11 | comment | added | vintorg | How about hook_field_prepare_view()? | |
| Nov 14, 2013 at 23:55 | comment | added | vintorg | These values are already saved. How can I manipulate it on the fly? | |
