    Default Making a "Address Line 2" registration field a required

    Hi,

    during the new account registration process there is a field called "Address Line 2". This field is actually for suburb and is not required.

    Now, what I need to do is to make this field a required one - mandatory so when I customer doesn't enter anything it doesn't allow to create an account.

    Can anybody help? Thanks

    Like you said this is optional in most countries. Why would you want it to be required. What if a customer doesn't have a second address such as Apt or Suite, or they choose to write their complete address in one line. Are you willing to loose a sale or a customer because you are making them think why there account hasn't been created.

    You can look into the create_account header and copy the rules from address 1 to address 2 then edit your create_account module and create_account template to pass the required field to the customer.

    Thank you for the reply, but do I really have to explain why I need it? I'm looking for a solution how to make it happen not why I shouldn't do it.

    The explanation you provided is general, I would need a little more specific instructions.

    Thanks
