address book help

Recommended Posts

Hello, I would like to add two extra fields to the customer 'address book'. I would like to add "email address" and "phone number" but not make them required. This way, when a customer enters in a new address to ship to, they may enter this information. Can someone direct me on this?

 

I know it's an odd request, but I've been working on it and can not find it anywhere else on the forum how to modify this page correctly. It looks like it goes in to a different database than the 'create account' info does.

 

Thanks!

If you can't add these two fields how are you going to use the information when it is entered?

 

Anyway that said

 

Add the 2 fields to the address book table.

 

Look in address_book.php and address_book_process.php.

 

use the code to add city as a template and add the same code to add / maintain your new fields .

 

Make sure sql to select and update include the new field names.

Hey smart one, if you make a smart a** remark, make sure you know what you're talking about. At the point that I asked this, I did that already. To make these fields show up, you need to edit address_book_details.php, which displays the actual input fields. This is the information that I needed that I was missing. Thanks anyways for your guessing. Hope this helps anyone who needs it in the future.
