In mysql4-install-0.1.0.php, I can add a custom text field in my magento module as follows:
$entityTypeId = $setup->getEntityTypeId('customer');
$attributeSetId = $setup->getDefaultAttributeSetId($entityTypeId);
$attributeGroupId = $setup->getDefaultAttributeGroupId($entityTypeId, $attributeSetId);
$setup->addAttribute('customer', 'resale', array(
'input' => 'text',
'type' => 'varchar',
'label' => 'Resale number',
'visible' => 1,
'required' => 1,
'user_defined' => 1,
));
$setup->addAttributeToGroup(
$entityTypeId,
$attributeSetId,
$attributeGroupId,
'resale',
'999'
);
$oAttribute = Mage::getSingleton('eav/config')->getAttribute('customer', 'resale');
$oAttribute->setData('used_in_forms', array('adminhtml_customer','customer_account_create'));
$oAttribute->save();
I also want to add a check box. I add it like this:
$setup->addAttribute('customer', 'marketattended1', array(
'input' => 'checkbox',
'type' => 'int',
'label' => 'San Francisco International Gift Fair',
'visible' => 1,
'required' => 0,
'user_defined' => 1,
));
$setup->addAttributeToGroup(
$entityTypeId,
$attributeSetId,
$attributeGroupId,
'marketattended1',
'999'
);
$oAttribute = Mage::getSingleton('eav/config')->getAttribute('customer', 'marketattended1');
$oAttribute->setData('used_in_forms', array('adminhtml_customer','customer_account_create'));
$oAttribute->save();
I can see my check box in admin / customer, but when I try to edit or add a new client, it will not save the client. It will just show the βWaitβ indicator. How to do it?
* Edit
Calling the member function setAttribute () for a non-object
I found this error or server response.
* Edit
I changed the installer code:
$setup->addAttribute('customer', 'marketattended1', array(
'input' => 'boolean',
'type' => 'int',
'label' => 'San Francisco International Gift Fair',
'visible' => 1,
'required' => 0,
'user_defined' => 1,
));
$setup->addAttributeToGroup(
$entityTypeId,
$attributeSetId,
$attributeGroupId,
'marketattended1',
'999'
);
$oAttribute = Mage::getSingleton('eav/config')->getAttribute('customer', 'marketattended1');
$oAttribute->setData('used_in_forms', array('adminhtml_customer','customer_account_create'));
$oAttribute->save();
Now I see the select component with yes | no and his work is excellent. It is also displayed in the customer registration form as follows:
<div class="field">
<label for="marketattended1">San Francisco International Gift Fair</label>
<select id="marketattended1" name="marketattended1" class=" select">
<option value="0">No</option>
<option value="1">Yes</option>
</select></div>
I want this to be a check box. I tried like this:
<div class="field">
<input class="checkbox" id="marketattended1" onchange="[removed]changechecked()" type="checkbox" value="1" />
<label class="required">*Others</label >
</div>
But that will not save. How to save it?
