But it is not working.

Answer 1

You need to add a column in admin_user table

$installer->getConnection()->addColumn($installer->getTable('admin/user'), 'phone', array(
 'type' => Varien_Db_Ddl_Table::TYPE_TEXT,
 'length' => 50,
 'nullable' => true,
 'default' => null
)); 

You need to overwrite this method Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Permissions_User_Edit_Tab_Main::_prepareForm and add a new element in there as below

 $fieldset->addField('phone', 'text', array(
 'name' => 'phone',
 'label' => Mage::helper('adminhtml')->__('Phone Number'),
 'title' => Mage::helper('adminhtml')->__('Phone Number'),
 'class' => 'input-text',
 )); 

before run clear the cache.

• vinaysirige: Thankyou, mobile column came, but no column formed in the database to store.
• Ritesh Santra: Can you save the data from admin panel?
• Ritesh Santra: @vinaysirige and if it is help to you please vote or like this post.
• vinaysirige: No mobile number column is not saving to the database
• Ritesh Santra: Did you use above installer script and create the database field?
