Adding fields to New Account Form

[cgwillis]

How can I add form fields to the New Account Form. For instance, if I've added a 'Referred' column to the Customers table, how do I put a group of radio buttons to be included in the add_usr.func? Thanks!

There is no built in way to do this. We will be adding that ability as a feature at some point. If you are interested in having us customize it for you, please send info to sales@ldev.net, and we can give you a quote.

Thanks,
Jamie

Thanks, Jamie, but I figured it out:

add_user.func line 57:

if(!$modify_account) $form_fields[] = "Referred";
--

add_user_fields.php:
<? if(!$modify_account){?>
<!--- <span class="field_name">&nbsp;</span><span style="text-align: left; width: 325"> --->
<br><br>

Hi there again....

I have nothing to do tonight... so I am browsing the forum. (Pls do not hate me.. I know this is my second post in less than 5 mins..)

I am very interested in this feature, ... it sounds really cool.

It looks like the add_user.func and the add_user.php have changed so I am not going to play around with them.

Any suggestions? It does not have to be detailed, a list of files to change with some hints will be sufficient to keep me busy.

Thanks a lot. :) (no more posts tonight... promise!!)

Hi,

No problem on the post. That's what the forum is here for! Adding new fields is difficult, and we do not have a tutorial to explain it. We will be adding a feature to allow for custom fields in the future.

Thanks,
Jamie
