Extra Fields for Customer Sign Up (Create Account) Page

I've also tried to insert the other two values into the database directly using the following command.

$sql = "insert into " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS . " (extrafield2, extrafield3) values (:value1:, :value2:) where customers_id = :customersID";
$sql = $db->bindVars($sql, ':value1:', $extrafield2, 'string');
$sql = $db->bindVars($sql, ':value2:', $extrafield3, 'string');
$result = $db->Execute($sql);

I'm starting to think that the values are not being posted with the form submission. I've checked the field name and ids and they all match correctly.

Only my first extrafield shows up in the customer edit page of the admin area. I can add the other two extrafield to the admin files as well.

try doing that, and see if you can get the backend updates working. Let me know what happens!

It's now updating all three fields correctly from the customer edit page. Still no luck on the account edit page.

I got it working. I honestly do not know how but I thank God. I prayed and placed back online my original header_php.php file and it updated the fields as expected. Thanks for your help and this great module JT.

Glad it's working for you! Sometimes strange things happen and re-uploading is what it takes.

@jahmar
Sounds like there may be something missing in /includes/modules/pages/account_edit/header_php.php
Do a search for 'extrafield' and make sure there is an instance for extrafield2 and extrafield3 in every single place that the other one is.

Ok. I'll try that. Thanks!

Can we add more than one extra fields using this mod?

I want to add 4 fields to registration form. Does this mod work for me?

Thank you for this awesome plugin, it works perfectly! :D

Is it possible to make the field a dropdown with options, say for different sizes?

I tried the idea of using existing code but the only code I found was for the countries, which seems to get the information from somewhere else rather than manually entering the countries.

Thanks!

@ntestinfo11, yes you can add more fields by following the instructions in readme.txt file

@nakashima, I am unsure why you might want sizes on the sign-up page. Perhaps you are using the sign up in a different way than intended, and there could be a better solution for your needs. Let me know what you're trying to accomplish.
