Remove required registering fields - PrestaShop 1.6

[jondeirjr]

Ok, so I read a lot of old threads concerning this, but none of them seems to be the right steps for PS 1.6, and I also could not find anything that could really help anywhere on the internet...

So, I have done every single step available on the many old threads in here, like this one https://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/2950[spam-filter]solved-removing-last-name-in-registration-in-15/

which talks about exactly what I need, but after doing it all, I still get the same error.

So I enabled debugging mode and this is what I see:

 

 

Anyone got any light? I'm lost in the dark

I thought Prestashop was a decent platform, but it's just stupid how a simple task as this one is a nightmare for non-coders.

Anyway I managed to do it myself and I will explain it to anyone who will need it in the future:

Do all the above thread I mentioned says and the next steps if you want to get rid of a required field, if it's not required you don't need to do the following, and if you just want it not to be required, you just got do the following:

So you gotta go to your CPanel ->Databases -> PHPMyAdmin -> Data Bases -> Now click on your DB -> find the table named "ead_customer" (just like on my screenshot above) and choose to see it's sctructure -> Now just find the required field you want to turn as not required choose "change" and just change it's predef to "NULL". Done! Hope I help anyone who's losing nights of sleep with this like I was

Hello I am using prestashop 1.6 and i would like to make the birthday date as a required field. I Couldn't find the "ead_customer" however i found a table named "ps_customer" with similar items. I changed the birthday default from NULL to NONE ( like it is at the firstname which is a required field ) as u suggested but I still can register without entering the birthday. Do you have any idea?
