Dhiren Vasoya

Where you call your custom code? Either Event Observer or Plugin or What? Share the code which you try for this.

Developper Magento

in new module : i created 3 attributes via upgradedata then i created another register form and now i want to save the customer one with specific group and specific attributs that are differents to the second form

Dhiren Vasoya

But your requirement is to set custom attribute value, right?

Developper Magento

i want t set the new attributes and other attributs (email, lastname, first name , group_id..)

Dhiren Vasoya

Look, the default fields like email, lastname, firstname must be set when you create customer, after creating you can set custom attribute value.

so the is no way to set all the attributs from controller ???

Dhiren Vasoya

You need to do same things into that controller

Developper Magento

i want to explain to you what i need

fisrt of all

i have created 2 form for customer registration

Dhiren Vasoya

into controller,

First create customer with basic fields which required to create customer.

Now after that, set it custom attribute value.

Developper Magento

in the first i added two attributs with other attributs

then i aded one attributs (code_client) in the second form

Dhiren Vasoya

kaled

I have to hide the first name and second name in the second form

Dhiren Vasoya

Look you need to do like this.

1. When First form submit, create customer

2. When Second form submit, set custom attribute.

Developper Magento

but they are required so i have to set all the attributs

manually

by code

Dhiren Vasoya

Look,

In step one, the field which are required, you need to currenly set demo value there and create customer

Developper Magento

did you understand me

Dhiren Vasoya

yes, I understand

Developper Magento

??? you need to currenly set demo value there and create customer??

$customer->setFirstname($_POST['name']);

and name is the name of input in form

is it possible

Dhiren Vasoya

Step 1 :
Create Customer : Pass the real value if availble otherwise pass demo value like
$customer->setFirstname('Test');

Step 2 :
Set the custom attribute value and default value which you want to set.
$customer->setFirstname($_POST['name']);
$customer->setCustomCode('Custom Value');

Are able to understand what I write above?

Developper Magento

not very well

becuase i can't find the setter of the new attributes

and for name

the is no input name for this

so i can't do like that: $_POST['name']

Dhiren Vasoya

Your problem is that, you do not know how to get posted value from user fill by frontend.

Developper Magento

yes exactlly
