Hi,

I have created several custom address fields to be completed during registration. How can I allow the user to edit those fields when going through the checkout? At the moment all that displays are the core address fields unless the customer clicks the edit icon.

I need to show the custom fields completed with their relative labels.

I'm thinking that I need to edit the *Display &gt; Views &gt; address\_template* but I'm not sure how to get the labels for the custom fields to show as well.

Any help appreciated.

cheers!

Hi,

You indeed need to edit the Display &gt; Views &gt; address_template. There you have one tag per custom field. As you can see it uses the column name of the custom field.
So, if your custom field column name is 'my_custom_field', then, the tag will be {my_custom_field} in the address_template view.

Thanks Nicolas, I though I was on the right track - but how do I get the field label to show as well?

You can write it directly in the view:

How do you get the custom fields to show on either the tax invoice or the shipping invoice?

At the moment it seems that only the administrator can get this info from the backend on the Sales pages.

cheers!

If you edit the address_template files you can add the custom fields info. There are two address_template files. One for the front end and one for the back end.
So if you add it on the front end one, your users will see it as well on their order details page.

This not working for me. I added a custom field called 'address' so I have two address lines with lables 'address line one' and 'address line two'. It appears on the checkout pages, but it does appear on the shipping invoice.

I did as mentioned in this thread in the address template back end and front end.

And did you activate your custom field for back end display ? Because otherwise, the tag won't be replaced.

What is the configuration you set in the paypal payment plugin ? Did you select the billing address in the address option ?

Having it core or not doesn't make any difference. This core setting only prevents you from deleting default custom fields, that's all. It doesn't have any impact on the custom field display.

Are you sure that you made your address_template modification for the good template ? If you have several templates installed on your website, you will have the address_template view several times (one per template) so if you don't do it for the template you're using, it won't be used by hikashop when you display that view.

Hi Nicolas

thanks for your help - yes I had not changed the correct address_template for the template I am using.

I have done it now - both of them the one for front end and back end.

BUT I still have 2 problems.

The shipping invoice format still does not reflect the changes.

Paypal is not pulling the data for the address I am getting town and postcode but not address line one and two and county. This is does not harm functionality but confuses customers who think they have to refill data.

Hi,

For your first problem, are you sure that you did the modification in the good template of the BACKEND ? If you use joomla 1.6, the default template of the back end is called bluestork.

HikaShop only sends the default custom address fields to joomla. There is no county field in HikaShop by default so it's not sent to paypal. The address_street custom field should be sent to paypal but the address field you added can't be sent to paypal since paypal wouldn't know what to do with it.

This solved it - I made the change to the Bluestork template.

And the shipping invoice and Paypal address works now.

Thankyou for your patience!

You can edit the file invoice of the view order via the menu Display-&gt;Views. There, you can add the code:
echo 'User email : '.$this-&gt;order-&gt;customer-&gt;user_email;

(You might need to put it between &lt;?php and ?&gt; depending on where you want to put it in the invoice)
