Drupal Studs help me with my form_alter hook ( I am almost there)
- by user363036
So I think I am almost there conceptually but need some missing pointers.
Objective is to add a few more fields to the normal user registration form, style it a little, then submit it with storing the extra fields in a table.
This is what I have so far. Can someone give me the final nudge and get me going. Please help me. Also how do I apply some minor styling like aligning the new form fields ?
Thank you so much !!!!!!!!!
function module_menu() {
$items = array();
$items['school/registration'] = array(
'title' = 'Upgraded Registration Form',
'page callback' ='module_school_register',
'type' = MENU_CALLBACK
);
return $items;
}//end of the function
function module_school_register(){
return drupal_get_form('form_school_register');
}//end of the function
function module_school_form_alter(&$form, $form_state, $form_id)
{
dsm($form_id);
if ($form_id == 'user_registration_form')
{
// modify the "#submit" form property by prepending another submit handler array
$form['#submit'] = array_merge(
array('_module_registration_submit' = array()),
$form['#submit']
);
}
}
function _module_registration_submit($form_id, $form_values) {
// store extra data in different table
}
function module_registration_validate($form, &$form_state)
{
$error=0;
//Validation stuff here, set $error to true if something went wrong, or however u want to do this. Completely up to u in how u set errors.
if ($error)
{
form_set_error('new_field_name', 'AHH SOMETHING WRONG!');
}
}
