Deleting create an account fields

[allk-9]

Hi,

 

When a visitor clicks on create an account and the form comes up with all of

those required fields, is there anyway to remove them?

 

For example: How would I remove the Gender and Birthdate fields?

 

Thanks :huh:

These can be turned off in admin>configuration>customer details

Hi Matti,

 

I look for customer details under admin>configuration but I didn't seea field called customer details. How do I turn certain fields off? Do I set min values to 0?

 

Thanks :blink:

Anyone else know how to turn certain fields off (like birthdate) when creating an account?

Which version of OSC are you using?

Hi Thanks for replying. My front page says: This shop is based on osCommerce 2.2-CVS.

You can modify the following lines in /catalog/includes/application_top.php as you require:

 

// Control what fields of the customer table are used

  define('ACCOUNT_GENDER', false);

  define('ACCOUNT_DOB', true);

  define('ACCOUNT_COMPANY', false);

  define('ACCOUNT_SUBURB', false);

  define('ACCOUNT_STATE', false);

Ooops, no joy. I made the following mods, but the fields are still there when I try to create an account and they still say required...

 

// Control what fields of the customer table are used

define('ACCOUNT_GENDER', 'false');

define('ACCOUNT_DOB', 'false');

define('ACCOUNT_COMPANY', 'false');

define('ACCOUNT_SUBURB', 'true');

define('ACCOUNT_STATE', 'true');

 

Any other ideas??? :(

Is it possible to add fields that may be unique to my business?

I have the same question. Even if the fields stay there, I just don't want them to be required.

 

another thing I would like to do is change the "State" field to a drop down.

I don't know if this is what you need but this thread answered my questions.

Hi Forum,

 

I am still struggling with trying to completely remove the address and contact information fields from the account creation form. The file application_top.php does not have the line of code mentioned in this posting. Can someone help please?

 

Thanks.
