Required fields removal

[marcinde]

Even though I've removed the code responsible for 'lastname' field in authentication.tpl file,

here's an error that shows when I try to create a customer account:

THERE ARE 2 ERRORS

• alias is required.
  
• lastname is required.
  

 

Where else can I remove it?

 

Thanks.

u need to go to controllers front contact controllers

you need to go an what? please clarify it, not everyone here are developer.

[marcinde]

So...? I should do ... ? Do you mean the customer settings in backoffice?

[vekia]

no, he mean that you have to edit the customer class: classes/Customer

 

you've got there object definition:

public static $definition = array(
 'table' => 'customer',
 'primary' => 'id_customer',
 'fields' => array(
  'secure_key' =>	 array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'validate' => 'isMd5', 'copy_post' => false),
  'lastname' =>	  array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'validate' => 'isName', 'required' => true, 'size' => 32),
  'firstname' =>	  array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'validate' => 'isName', 'required' => true, 'size' => 32),
  'email' =>	   array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'validate' => 'isEmail', 'required' => true, 'size' => 128),
  'passwd' =>	  array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'validate' => 'isPasswd', 'required' => true, 'size' => 32),
  'last_passwd_gen' =>   array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'copy_post' => false),
  'id_gender' =>	  array('type' => self::TYPE_INT, 'validate' => 'isUnsignedId'),
  'birthday' =>	  array('type' => self::TYPE_DATE, 'validate' => 'isBirthDate'),
  'newsletter' =>	 array('type' => self::TYPE_BOOL, 'validate' => 'isBool'),
  'newsletter_date_add' =>  array('type' => self::TYPE_DATE,'copy_post' => false),
  'ip_registration_newsletter' => array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'copy_post' => false),
  'optin' =>	   array('type' => self::TYPE_BOOL, 'validate' => 'isBool'),
  'website' =>	 array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'validate' => 'isUrl'),
  'company' =>	 array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'validate' => 'isGenericName'),
  'siret' =>	  array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'validate' => 'isSiret'),
  'ape' =>	  array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'validate' => 'isApe'),
  'outstanding_allow_amount' => array('type' => self::TYPE_FLOAT, 'validate' => 'isFloat', 'copy_post' => false),
  'show_public_prices' =>   array('type' => self::TYPE_BOOL, 'validate' => 'isBool', 'copy_post' => false),
  'id_risk' =>	 array('type' => self::TYPE_INT, 'validate' => 'isUnsignedInt', 'copy_post' => false),
  'max_payment_days' =>   array('type' => self::TYPE_INT, 'validate' => 'isUnsignedInt', 'copy_post' => false),
  'active' =>	  array('type' => self::TYPE_BOOL, 'validate' => 'isBool', 'copy_post' => false),
  'deleted' =>	  array('type' => self::TYPE_BOOL, 'validate' => 'isBool', 'copy_post' => false),
  'note' =>	   array('type' => self::TYPE_HTML, 'validate' => 'isCleanHtml', 'size' => 65000, 'copy_post' => false),
  'is_guest' =>	 array('type' => self::TYPE_BOOL, 'validate' => 'isBool', 'copy_post' => false),
  'id_shop' =>	  array('type' => self::TYPE_INT, 'validate' => 'isUnsignedId', 'copy_post' => false),
  'id_shop_group' =>	 array('type' => self::TYPE_INT, 'validate' => 'isUnsignedId', 'copy_post' => false),
  'id_default_group' =>	array('type' => self::TYPE_INT, 'copy_post' => false),
  'id_lang' =>	  array('type' => self::TYPE_INT, 'validate' => 'isUnsignedId', 'copy_post' => false),
  'date_add' =>	  array('type' => self::TYPE_DATE, 'validate' => 'isDate', 'copy_post' => false),
  'date_upd' =>	  array('type' => self::TYPE_DATE, 'validate' => 'isDate', 'copy_post' => false),
 ),
);

 

required fields have got 'required' => true

just remove it from fields that you don't want to be "required"

 

 

as you can see there is no "alias" field, it's because it is a part of classes/Address,php file

[Jiten rash (away)]

ohh sorry its authentication form, class/customer line 162

'lastname' => array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'validate' => 'isName', 'required' => false, 'size' => 32),

 

on authentication.tpl u can completly remove this

 

<p class="required text">

<label for="customer_lastname">{l s='Last name'} ^*</label>

<input onkeyup="$('#lastname').val(this.value);" type="text" class="text" id="customer_lastname2" name="customer_lastname2" value="{if isset($smarty.post.customer_lastname)}{$smarty.post.customer_lastname}{/if}" />

</p>

As you can see, I've set lastname - required' => false,

It is still required while an atempt to register a customer...

And also alias is required

[vekia]

have you changed also the "address" class ? it's necessary too.

[marcinde]

Thank you, Vekia, I did it, now when I try to register it shows:

THERE IS 1 ERROR

• An error occurred while creating your account..
  

 

I have no idea what error it may be - no special symbols in address were entered.

[vekia]

okay, so what fields you marked as "unrequired" ?

while you creating new account - try to fill "alias" field ok?

 

error appears too?

[marcinde]

It seems that you cannot set lastname as not required. Don't try this, I had to bring the whole Authentication.tpl file back to default. This code is a total mess.

[vekia]

it's related to the alias, you need to define the alias field

i checked it in my demo 1.5.4 store and everything works as should work

[marcinde]

Thank you for your effort, I really appreciate it. But, after those adventures I've just changed the labels for some fields and left them "required".

[vekia]

thanks for information, hope that everytihng works for you as you expected

 

best regards

[shniurs]

I have same issue - alias field has value, so it has nothing to do with this error.

[pienzu]

it's related to the alias, you need to define the alias field

Hi Vekia,

I suddenly have a problem with the "alias/assign a name to the address" field when customer is registering. This was not a problem before.

Can I erase this field or can this cause problems?

Also I turned on debugging but dont see the error more than before 

[pienzu]

Hi, OK resolved this problem. 

 

Go to /address.tpl and look for:  <input type="hidden" name="token" value="{$token}" />

                                              

Remove it and put it just here

 

{if $field_name eq 'address1'}

<p class="required text">

<input type="hidden" name="token" value="{$token}" />
