[dtang888]

Have you figured out how to do it? I tried to create a similar field. I will appreciate it if you can share your solution. Thanks!

If you are looking for customer referral sources, here's a better module for that: http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=186

Running v1.3.9h and have managed to add an extra filed for telephone (Mobile Number). If I test with setting up a new account, the new field displays and is present when viewing as Administrator, but is empty.

If I Update the test account by logging in as customer and 'View or change my account information', then re-enter the mobile number, it then stores correctly.

Any idea why this might be?

Hi Jackie,

I downloaded your mod earlier today and I believe I followed the instructions however it is obvious I have missed something or more correctly misinterpreted your instructions. The "display extra field"and "require extra field" both show up in Configuration in admin but there are no changes to the create an account form.

Checking some of the files it appears some have the text 'extrafield' in the strings rather than what I named it - do I go about changing everything I find in all files to "MY_NAME" or do a re-load?

So that you know - I want an additional field to "Company Name" - it will be "Company ABN" (ABN=Australian Business Number) which is required to validate that the account application is from a legitemate company or business (we wholesale) - it would also need a "validate" code, e.g. must be eleven characters with no spaces - with instruction, like for password). Noticeably the "Company Name" section does not have a "*" for required information so it appears that the standard form is designed for consumers, end user customers.

So what would be your advice?

cheers in advance,
Mike

How would you display this field in the orders.php page in the admin? I added it to the invoice, but that code doesn't work for the orders page. Thanks!

I have version 1.0 of this mod and I'd like to add more extra fields. I didn't see any instructions in the instructions.txt file.

How can I do this?

Thanks,

John

Hi,
I know this is a long shot in trying to get a reply. But since this is doing my head in I thought I would ask. I installed this mod successfully the first time then decided to add some more extra fields. Im running version 1.38a and I did get the mod running on the customer side. However when testing to approve customer I am now getting this error and my list of customers will not show up. Any help really appreciated

Fatal error: Call to undefined function zen_get_customers_address_book() in /var/www/XXXXXX/httpdocs/store/admin/customers.php on line 1189

Ok,
I fixed this error just in case other people get it I replaced my file under admin/includes/functions/general.php.
and now it all works

Hi jackie.taferner. Your module is just what I need. I'm running version 1.5 and have tried installing. First time I forgot to configure /YOUR_TEMPLATE/ but then did and reinstalled. On my login page I get an extra box with the title "EXTRA FIELDS" but no fields show up. I have tried checking Admin > Configuration > Customer Details but nothing there. Once I had configured the files, I dragged both the admin folder and the includes folder into the root folder of my site. Did I install correctly? What am I doing wrong? Please help!
