Hi guys,

I have taken up a challenge to create a simple module for Prestashop 1.7.8. My goal is to create a custom boolean field to group categories. I have come so far that I can see the field on admin page of each category but it isn't showing the same value as in the database. When I click on save the category status changes to disabled.

Here my entire code:

if (!defined('_PS_VERSION_')) {
    exit;
}
use PrestaShopBundle\Form\Admin\Type\SwitchType;

class New_custom_boolean extends Module{
 public function __construct()
    {
        $this->name = 'new_custom_boolean';
        $this->tab = 'administration';
        $this->version = '1.0.0';
        $this->author = 'no name modules';
        $this->bootstrap = true;
        $this->ps_versions_compliancy = array('min' => '1.7', 'max' => _PS_VERSION_);
        $this->need_instance = 0;
        parent::__construct();
        $this->displayName = $this->l('New custom boolean');
        $this->description = $this->l('New custom boolean field');
    }

 public function install()
    {
        if (Shop::isFeatureActive()) {
            Shop::setContext(Shop::CONTEXT_ALL);
        }

        if (!parent::install()

            || !$this->registerHook([
                'actionCategoryFormBuilderModifier',
                'actionAfterCreateCategoryFormHandler',
                'actionAfterUpdateCategoryFormHandler',
            ])
        ) {
            return false;
        }
        return true;
    }

    public function uninstall()
    {
        Configuration::updateValue('NEW_CUSTOM_BOOLEAN_SETTINGS', serialize(array(true, true, false)));
        $configuration_array = unserialize(Configuration::get('NEW_CUSTOM_BOOLEAN__SETTINGS'));

        if (!parent::uninstall() ||
            !Configuration::deleteByName('NEW_CUSTOM_BOOLEAN_NAME')

        ) {
            return false;
        }

        return true;
    }
 public function hookActionCategoryFormBuilderModifier(array $params)
    {
        $formBuilder = $params['form_builder'];



        $formBuilder->add(
            $this->name.'new_custom_boolean',
            SwitchType::class,
            [
                         'label' => $this->l('Turn on or off'),
                          'required' => false,

                        'choices' => [
                            $this->l('Enabled') => 1,
                            $this->l('Disabled') => 0,
                        ],

                    ]
        );


        $params['data'][$this->name.'new_custom_boolean'] = 'new_custom_boolean';


        $params['data']['active'] = false;
        $formBuilder->setData($params['data']);
    }

    public function hookActionAfterCreateCategoryFormHandler(array $params)
    {
        $this->updateData($params['form_data'], $params);
    }

    public function hookActionAfterUpdateCategoryFormHandler(array $params)
    {
        $this->updateData($params['form_data'], $params);
    }

    protected function updateData(array $data, $params)
    {
        $cat = new Category((int)$params['id']);
        $cat->new_custom_boolean = $data['new_custom_boolean'];
        $cat->update();
    }
}

I have added a field to presta_category_lang new_custom_boolean. Can someone help me solve this.

Best regards.
