At the moment it is essential that when registering an account the user must input a telephone number - is there a way to turn this off? I don't really care if they input a number or not.
a somehow similar question has been relplied to here:

Since you'll possibly require to have some sort of DATA in your Telephone Field, i order to make OC work, you could set all fields related to the phone number INVISIBLE. But still, you need to know what your'e doing, and test it out, whereever ths Tel.Number could be looked for. I don't think, even in OC2, that you can just shut it off tp make it go away...
Good Luck

If it's just a case of having DATA in the telephone field could i possibly auto-populate it with 'not provided' or something similar? I have found a away to remove the red * so that would work just as well.IP_CAM wrote:a somehow similar question has been relplied to here:

You cannot just 'remove' a 'required' - default Setting-Value, be aware of what your'e doing! It could suddenly 'stop' any further action or show an error message.... So, test it out. As I succested, I would enter a FIXED VALUE into the 'HIDDEN' Post Variable field, fully make the 'visible part' invisible and/or 'replace' what was there before with a custom text.

In catalog/controller/account/register.php at lines 367 to 369, you will find the following code:
Either delete or comment these lines.
Code: Select all
if ((utf8_strlen($this->request->post['telephone']) < 3) || (utf8_strlen($this->request->post['telephone']) > 32)) {
$this->error['telephone'] = $this->language->get('error_telephone');
}

This worked for me - I then went to /catalog/view/theme/your theme/template/account/register.tpi and searched for telephone. I the changed <div class="form-group required"> to <div class="form-group"> which takes the little red * awayfido-x wrote:In catalog/controller/account/register.php at lines 367 to 369, you will find the following code:Either delete or comment these lines.Code: Select all
