Limit Fields when Register and Update additional fields at Checkout

[nickia]

Hi everyone,

 

I want to create a short registration form with

 

firstname

e-mail

password

 

Once client decides to purchase something, they will add in additional information during checkout.

 

It's easy to create a short form because I just hide the fields and fill them with dummy data.

 

However, to enable additional info at checkout, I will need to modify the code so MYSQL will update the table with new information replacing dummy data. Since the source code is locked, I don't know how to proceed with this.

 

Your help is greatly appreciated!

Ok I'm trying to use the internal API to update client info but it returned "Error" . Any idea why?

 

<?php

function update_client_info($vars) {
$clientid = $_SESSION['uid'];
print_r($vars);
print_r($clientid);

# Set Vars
$command = 'updateclient';
$values = array( 'email' => 'newemail@gmail.com', 'id' => '$clientid', );
$adminuser = 'api';

# Call API
$results = localAPI($command,$values,$adminuser);
if ($results['result']!="success") echo "An Error Occurred: ".$results['result'];

}
add_hook("AfterShoppingCartCheckout",1,"update_client_info");

?>

Problem fixed after talking to Matt.

 

'id' => '$clientid' should be 'clientid' => '$clientid'
