Adding Custom Text Fields To Affiliates

[chrisp]

Hello,

 

I was trying to add custom fields to affiliates, like a category select list. So I added an additional attribute named 'categoryid' to the affiliates database table.

Showing the select list and filling it with data works however saving it does not. Can anybody advise how to make it save the value of the custom field?

 

Cheers

Yeah, you'll have to trace the code execution with e.g. xdebug, so that you can see where the page submission goes, and add in your support for processing the input to the code. (And then manually manage that change with every upgrade.)
