Have you been able to solve your problem? I have exactly the same one with radio field. The value is correctly stored in the database but is not displaying in admin nor front when updating the form.

Hello, I have read very carefully your guide and I am wondering if this guide could apply for Prestashop 1.7 because I need to apply this guide in order to add a new custom_field on address form.

Sorry, I was wrong… I forgot to “Adding the new field to the address format in Prestashop” because, otherwise the $field_name obviously can’t be properly set…

Hello, is there anything to be done on AuthController.php ? How that field (or more than one…) is recognized by the controller and saved to database? And then, why if you write {if $field_name eq ‘myfield’} with “myfield” or other name set, the fields are not there on the form? Are you sure that Address.php is enough? Thank you

Hello,
I followed the instructions and worked. I used this topic to create extra fields for my client to have the abillity invoice when are in checkout. The problem is that if I try to do the order and I will not choose to have an invoice and I cannot save the information I give because it needs to fill the new fields I created. By the way I haven’t these fields required
Thanks

I was just checking your post and comments and I saw that you used the word downgrade to 1.7. It is very strange to me as for newer version upgrade is used. It shows that you are not OK with 1.7.
I know that you are an expert so please guide me that I have installed version 1.6 on my store. Either it will be better to upgrade it to 1.7 or I continue using 1.6?

Well, I managed to get it to work, up to some point.
I finally created a new class in classes and my class appeared in backoffice so I managed to include it in address format. I also created an AddressController.php file in overrides folder, extending the initContent function and creating a new function, in order to assign the names I needed to an array which I (think) I pass to the tpl file. The select input in front office finally appeared, but it is not populated… I don’t know what I am doing wrong…
