I am trying to add 2 customer attribute fields in my Magento registration form.

The input names are the same in the register.phtml as in the install-1.0.0.php file. However I think there is something wrong in the installer file, because only the first attribute is saved (is_privacy_statement).

Here is my code from the installer file:

$installer = $this;
$installer->startSetup();
$installer->addAttribute("customer", "is_privacy_statement", array(
 "type" => "int",
 "label" => "Privacy Statement",
 "input" => "checkbox",
 "position" => 120,
 "required" => true,
 "is_system" => 0
));
$installer->addAttribute("customer", "is_general_terms", array(
 "type" => "int",
 "label" => "General Terms",
 "input" => "checkbox",
 "position" => 121,
 "required" => true,
 "is_system" => 0
));
$attribute = Mage::getSingleton("eav/config")->getAttribute("customer", "is_privacy_statement", "is_general_terms");
$used_in_forms=array();
$used_in_forms[]="adminhtml_customer";
$used_in_forms[]="checkout_register";
$used_in_forms[]="customer_account_create";
$used_in_forms[]="customer_account_edit";
$attribute->setData("used_in_forms", $used_in_forms)
 ->setData("is_used_for_customer_segment", true)
 ->setData("is_user_defined", 1)
 ->setData("is_visible", 1);
$attribute->save();
$installer->endSetup();

I have no idea why is not saved the second attribute too.

    Try this : $attribute1 = Mage::getSingleton("eav/config")->getAttribute("customer", "is_privacy_statement"); $attribute = Mage::getSingleton("eav/config")->getAttribute("customer", "is_general_terms"); because that getAttribute method have 2 param only. Commented Jun 8, 2018 at 10:59

Try this code :

$attributeArray = [
 [
 'code' => 'is_privacy_statement',
 'label' => 'Privacy Statement',
 'position' => '1020'
 ],[
 'code' => 'is_general_terms',
 'label' => 'General Terms',
 'position' => '1021'
 ]
];
foreach($attributeArray as $attributeCreate)
{
 $installer = new Mage_Customer_Model_Entity_Setup('core_setup');
 $installer->startSetup();
 $installer->addAttribute(
 "customer", $attributeCreate['code'], array(
 "type" => "int",
 "label" => $attributeCreate['label'],
 "input" => "text",
 "visible" => true,
 "required" => true,
 "default" => "1",
 )
 );
 $attribute = Mage::getSingleton("eav/config")->getAttribute("customer", $attributeCreate['code']);
 $used_in_forms = array();
 $used_in_forms[] = "adminhtml_customer";
 $used_in_forms[] = "checkout_register";
 $used_in_forms[] = "customer_account_create";
 $used_in_forms[] = "customer_account_edit";
 $attribute->setData("used_in_forms", $used_in_forms)
 ->setData("is_used_for_customer_segment", true)
 ->setData("is_system", 0)
 ->setData("is_user_defined", 1)
 ->setData("is_visible", 1)
 ->setData("sort_order", $attributeCreate['position']);
 $attribute->save();
 $installer->endSetup();
}

Note: input type are changed, as per "On customer register got an error message: "Cannot save the customer"" because got errors with checkbox and/or boolean type, and the code a little bit optimised.

  • Thank you. For some reason I thought this will work, it seemed to make sense, but it is still saving the first attribute only. Commented Jun 8, 2018 at 12:10

So your code should be like this after changes:

$installer = $this;
$installer->startSetup();
$installer->addAttribute("customer", "is_privacy_statement", array(
 "type" => "int",
 "label" => "Privacy Statement",
 "input" => "checkbox",
 "position" => 120,
 "required" => true,
 "is_system" => 0
));
$installer->addAttribute("customer", "is_general_terms", array(
 "type" => "int",
 "label" => "General Terms",
 "input" => "checkbox",
 "position" => 121,
 "required" => true,
 "is_system" => 0
));
$used_in_forms=array();
$used_in_forms[]="adminhtml_customer";
$used_in_forms[]="checkout_register";
$used_in_forms[]="customer_account_create";
$used_in_forms[]="customer_account_edit";
$attributeIsPrivacyStatement = Mage::getSingleton("eav/config")->getAttribute("customer", "is_privacy_statement");
$attributeIsPrivacyStatement->setData("used_in_forms", $used_in_forms)
 ->setData("is_used_for_customer_segment", true)
 ->setData("is_user_defined", 1)
 ->setData("is_visible", 1);
$attributeIsPrivacyStatement->save();
$attributeIsGeneralTerms = Mage::getSingleton("eav/config")->getAttribute("customer", "is_general_terms");
$attributeIsGeneralTerms->setData("used_in_forms", $used_in_forms)
 ->setData("is_used_for_customer_segment", true)
 ->setData("is_user_defined", 1)
 ->setData("is_visible", 1);
$attributeIsGeneralTerms->save();
$installer->endSetup();

  • Thank you. It is not working. I have double checked the names and deleted the cache. Still the first attribute only is saved. Commented Jun 8, 2018 at 12:20
  • check that is_general_terms attribute is exist in database. Commented Jun 8, 2018 at 12:24
  • It does exist only the is_privacy_statement attribute. Commented Jun 8, 2018 at 12:35
  • remove your module from core_resource and remove the first attribute and install again OR try with upgrade-1.0.0-1.0.1.php add with the second attribute. Commented Jun 8, 2018 at 12:43
  • I have removed the data as per your comment and now "Cannot save the customer." Commented Jun 8, 2018 at 12:58

here is my code for create account in add customer custom field and using with patch/data so you can add multiple customer custom attribute with multiple file so you can easily handle from there.

I've created for business name like this

  1. setup/patch/data

     <?php
 namespace Praas\CustomerAccountRegistration\Setup\Patch\Data;

 private $attributeResource;
 /**

 public function __construct(
 EavSetupFactory $eavSetupFactory,
 Config $eavConfig,
 LoggerInterface $logger,
 Attribute $attributeResource,
 ModuleDataSetupInterface $moduleDataSetup
 ) {
 $this->eavSetupFactory = $eavSetupFactory;
 $this->eavConfig = $eavConfig;
 $this->logger = $logger;
 $this->attributeResource = $attributeResource;
 $this->moduleDataSetup = $moduleDataSetup;
 }
 /**

 */
 public function apply()
 {
 $this->moduleDataSetup->getConnection()->startSetup();
 $this->addPhoneAttribute();
 $this->moduleDataSetup->getConnection()->endSetup();
 }
 /**
 * @throws AlreadyExistsException
 * @throws LocalizedException
 * @throws \Zend_Validate_Exception
 */
 public function addPhoneAttribute()
 {
 $eavSetup = $this->eavSetupFactory->create();
 $eavSetup->addAttribute(
 Customer:: ENTITY,
 'business_name',
 [
 'type' => 'varchar',
 'label' => 'Business Name',
 'input' => 'text',
 'required' => 0,
 'visible' => 1,
 'user_defined' => 1,
 'sort_order' => 999,
 'position' => 999,
 'system' => 0
 ]
 );
 $attributeSetId = $eavSetup->getDefaultAttributeSetId(Customer::ENTITY);
 $attributeGroupId = $eavSetup->getDefaultAttributeGroupId(Customer::ENTITY);
 $attribute = $this->eavConfig->getAttribute(Customer::ENTITY, 'business_name');
 $attribute->setData('attribute_set_id', $attributeSetId);
 $attribute->setData('attribute_group_id', $attributeGroupId);
 $attribute->setData('used_in_forms', [
 'adminhtml_customer',
 'adminhtml_checkout',
 'customer_account_create',
 'customer_account_edit'
 ]);
 $this->attributeResource->save($attribute);
 }
 /**
 * {@inheritdoc}
 */
 public static function getDependencies()
 {
 return [];
 }
 public function revert()
 {
 }
 /**
 * {@inheritdoc}
 */
 public function getAliases()
 {
 return [];
 } }

  1. view/frontend/templates in additional.phtml

     <div class="field business_name">
 <label class="label" for="businessname">
 <span><?= $block->escapeHtml(__('Business Name')) ?></span>
 </label>
 <div class="control">
 <input type="text" name="business_name" id="business_name" value=""
 title="<?= $block->escapeHtmlAttr(__('Business Name')) ?>" class="input-text">
 </div>

  2. customer account file in layout customer_account_create.xml
