Customer telephone number


GlennW

Recommended Posts

I do not want to ask my customer what his/her telephone number is. I swear I saw that option once upon a time but now don't have a clue as to how to turn it off.

 

Please let this be a simple question. :'(

 

My store is not up and running but here it is if it makes any difference to anyone trying to help. https://st21.startlogic.com/~preserve/ecomm...talog/index.php

 

I don't know where to enter the Information asked for in the lower left hand box either. Can I get some help with that also?

Hello,

 

If you look in the account_edit file, you'll find this bit of code:

 

if (strlen($telephone) < ENTRY_TELEPHONE_MIN_LENGTH) {
     $error = true;

 

That's what makes the phone number required, so you'll need to do something with that. As far as the box itself appearing, you could just comment it out. Be sure and do a backup before changing anything.

 

Be well,

 

Tina

Thanks Tina but I don't really know what the "something" is that I need to do. Does anyone else have a suggestion or know what the "something" is?
