Hi all,

Let me start by saying that Lemonstand is a fantastic product, well done!

Here in the UK, most addresses require the use of a second address field, between street address and city:

Street address,
Village,
Town,
County,
Post Code

Would this be possible to implement for the checkout process for both shipping and billing addresses?

Regards,
Leon

Hi Leon,

How about using a textarea for the address in your frontend HTML? Would that work?

Thanks

I'm looking for a similar solution and not having much success in creating a module to add a second address line.

A textarea would work however the site I am working on is linked to Sage which has a 30 character field limit, therefore two address fields is required.

I'll keep you posted if I have any success with the module.

I have managed to add an extra address line to both billing and shipping forms using the Extending Customers method http://lemonstandapp...xisting_models.

I now need to work out how to get it to work with copy billing information, any ideas?

Hi Paul,

You will need to use a custom ajax handler for copying billing information. Look at the current ajax handler (shop:on_copyBillingInfo). You need to also copy over the new fields you've added. Check out this post that explains how to access the field for the billing info (use get_custom_field) and then you can use get_custom_fields and set_custom_fields (see the Shop_CheckoutData class) to not just get the value of the field but also set it.

Hope that steers you in the right direction.

Thanks very much for your help, I've kind of had to give up on this one though. I've settled for copying the billing info across automatically on page load without the copy button trigger, i.e. <?= h(Shop_CheckoutData::get_custom_field('billing_address_2')) ?>.
