Hi,

There is this example module : https://github.com/frederic-benoist/fbsample-extracustomerfield

It uses two hooks : additionalCustomerFormFields and validateCustomerFormFields.

In order to add fields in Customer form, You need to register below hooks  and add column with field name in customer table 

For adding new field on form 

additionalCustomerFormFields

you can add new fields by creating FormField object 

        $extra_fields['hobbies'] = (new FormField)
            ->setName('name of field')
            ->setType('type of field text, select or any other')
            ->setValue('value for field')
            ->setLabel('Label');

     validateCustomerFormFields

add validation for the field you added in form

actionObjectCustomerUpdateAfter

save value in database

actionObjectCustomerAddAfter

save value in database

Sample function for the hook : additionalCustomerFormFields (Adds the hobbies field)

/**
 * Add fields in Customer Form
 *
 * @param array $params parameters (@see CustomerFormatter->getFormat())
 *
 * @return array of extra FormField
 */
public function hookAdditionalCustomerFormFields($params)
{
  $module_fields = $this->readModuleValues();

  $hobbies_value = Tools::getValue('hobbies');
  if (isset($module_fields['hobbies'])) {
  	$hobbies_value = $module_fields['hobbies'];
  }

  $extra_fields = array();
  $extra_fields['hobbies'] = (new FormField)
    ->setName('hobbies')
    ->setType('text')
    ->setValue($hobbies_value)
    ->setLabel($this->l('Hobbies'));

  return $extra_fields;
}

 

Sample function for the hook : validateCustomerFormFields (Dance, Shopping or Yoga only allowed)

/**
 * Validate fields in Customer form
 *
 * @param array $params hook call parameters (@see CustomerForm->validateByModules())
 *
 * @return array of extra FormField
 */
public function hookvalidateCustomerFormFields($params)
{
	$module_fields = $params['fields'];
	if ('Dance' != $module_fields[0]->getValue()
		&& 'Shopping' != $module_fields[0]->getValue()
		&& 'Yoga' != $module_fields[0]->getValue()
	) {
		$module_fields[0]->addError(
			$this->l('Only "Dance", "Shopping" or "Yoga"')
		);
	}
	return array(
		$module_fields
	);
}

There is no need to add the extra field in the respective class?
The referred hook actually overrides the class in order not to ignore the field?

There's no need to override the Customer class.
The override is only necessary if you want the new zone to be available everywhere the Customer class is used.

Ok thank you for the information, because once I tried to make some customization without the field declaration in the class (and without using the hooks mentioned above)
just field in the database and extra field in the admin controller UI and the data could not be inserted in the db extra column.

I have managed to manage the extra fields in the front and save in the database but I can't get it out in the back, I have seen in tutorials override on AdminCustomerController.php but in version 1.7.7.1 I can't find that controller, i find admincustomerthreadscontroller ... someone can help ?
