Lastname Optional

[fioxx]

Hi, I have a problem with prestashop 1.6, I want disable the lastname required in the registration form. How can I do it?

P.s. Excuse me for my English, but I'm Italian and I can't speak English very well.

Thanks,

Filippo Mereu.

Try removing required => true from the address.php class file. It should work. Then do the same for the customer class

[bellini13]

the database columns do not allow null values for the last name.

Yes, i do it. But it is not enough.

I modified on the MySql the table ps_customer, I have changed the field "Null" from No to Yes. It work!

In the file authenthication.tpl, I have delete "required" and "is_required validate", from the lines of lastname.

Thank you!

In order to remove this required field
Edit these files

1. Address.php
2. Custome.php
3. AddressFormat.php

And remove the required flag

its better to do an override and not touch the core

also it is better to put some random data inside these as it is the core, and maybe some services are using this field. so removing it may result into unnecessary development
