Additional Customers Fields

I've seen also in this thread that should be there an option to do a drop down menu for the fields but i cannot see this option.

I specifically posted an update for version 2.0 about this today. The drop-down option has been added into the latest release as it is identified from my changelog documentation + my sample template files. Upgrading to the latest version release would be the solution.

Additionally, your last report is very vague.

Please state your:

• PHP Version.
• mySQL Version.
• Zen-Cart Version.

When you say it's 'buggy', when exacly does this problem occurs (action names, which operations etc ...)

Great Mod! I downloaded the new version and it works like a charm. Only question. I copied your files and added a customer field titled customer_age and it works great, I just change the title to Sales Representative: and the content to and couple of names. On the user-side the pulldown menu comes up twice in both the account register and the account edit, but in the admin side it only shows up once like I want it to. Any help?

Hi Oracle

MySQL 4.1.9-max
latest zen release 1.3.7

I have a feeling I have forgot something. :unsure:

Would it be possible to post your extra_definitions both files readings (under PHP bbcode please - not straight posted on the forum) as well as your template files between the // Additional customers fields and // End of additional customers fields - statement (same for the PHP bbcode) ? I will take a look at them (better hope it's NOT a capitalized chars as issued before on this topic though).

Thanks.

And this part ?

sorry some more

looking at the code into dreamweaver there are some errors due to unclosed tags i guess thet dw marks in yellow and here's the list:

line 141

line 158

line 767 <tr>
<td width="100%">

line 845 </td>
</tr>

line 861 </td>
</tr>

the bug looks into the admin when for example you try to insert an empty field

These marks are fine. Still waiting for your exact specs on when & where this error happends precisely.

i just edited the post and marked a situation when the mistake occurs

..should be nice a messenger service

The text you added above does not justify on where precisely this action occurs. Again, please specify on where exacly (actions, buttons you clicked etc ...) the headers server text error appears.

Thanks.

into:
admin -> main menu -> create additional customer fields

if i leave the field empty (as i saw accidentally) then click on "go to next step button"
it gives the error i said befor

Ahhh ! now this is what I call precision. :wink2:

Confirmed bug - isn't just great to be a victim of the zen_redirect module ? :smartalec:

Not my bug by the way - it's from the Zen Team (as mentioned before already). However, here's a special fix for you since this might not be the case for everyone so I cannot update my package for this particular reason:

In admin/additional_customers.php file,

find:

if (is_array($error) && zen_not_null($error)) {
          foreach ($error as $key => $val) {
              $val = zen_output_string_protected($val);
              $messageStack->add_session($val, 'error');
zen_redirect(zen_href_link(FILENAME_ADDITIONAL_CUSTOMERS_FIELDS, '', 'NONSSL'));              
          } // End of foreach statement.
      } // End of if statement.      
  } // End of action statement.

replace with:

if (is_array($error) && zen_not_null($error)) {
          foreach ($error as $key => $val) {
              $val = zen_output_string_protected($val);
              $messageStack->add_session($val, 'error');              
          } // End of foreach statement.
          zen_redirect(zen_href_link(FILENAME_ADDITIONAL_CUSTOMERS_FIELDS, '', 'NONSSL'));                            
      } // End of if statement.      
  } // End of action statement.

This should not cause you anymore trouble. :wink2:

Post edited above. Make sure to replace my latest edited modifications.

still giving the error but if the problem is restricted to this no problem. :P
i just liked to know if the new version you posted is working because of what i said that the field doesn't show in the login box except for the title of the box(additonal customer fields..)

still giving the error

Very well. Use mine. Not a very big fan of zen_redirect module myself:

if (is_array($error) && zen_not_null($error)) {
          foreach ($error as $key => $val) {
              $val = zen_output_string_protected($val);
              $messageStack->add_session($val, 'error');
         echo '<script>window.location=\'' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_ADDITIONAL_CUSTOMERS_FIELDS, '', 'NONSSL'). '\'</script>';
          } // End of foreach statement.
      } // End of if statement.      
  } // End of action statement.

This should do the trick. :wink2:

Again, please read the upgrade and changelog documentation text regarding all affected changes for this MOD.

Update:

A new update has just been released from my site. As usual, for those who needs to upgrade, simply follow the upgrade and changelog documentation text.

Note: The update does NOT involve the latest redirect modifications above this thread (due to differences between web servers on how redirections between browsers and servers are being configured).

I've the teh mod working almost perfectly the only issues I have is on the customer side of the site my two additional fields shows up twice and on the admin side only once (like it should be). Secondly, I was wondering if there is any way to make my new fields show up on the invoice. Any help would be appreciated!

Same response as here:

No one did posted these amended readings yet.

I don't know where and how to use PHP bbcode

Begin with:
[ php ]

End with:

[ /php ]

(without spaces between those tags).
