Company List Drop down In Self Registration

[Wes]

I am trying to add a a dropdown to the customer self registration that has the list of Companies. Everyone knows all the companies already they are more members than companies.

I have CustomerCompanySupport activated and do get a dropdown when I want to assign a Customer in the Agent/Admin Frontend. I would like the same for the Customer in his frontend.

So I'd have:

Title:
Name:
Lastname:
E-Mail:
Company: <Dropdown with available CustomerIDs>

For the Registration

Any Idea/Hint or Solution is greatly appreatiated.

Here is my attempt at the code but I need to convert this into a <select> this is in the CustomerLogin.dtl

Code: Select all

<div class="NewLine">
<label class="Mandatory" for="UserCustomerID"><span class="Marker">*</span> $Text{"CustomerID{CustomerUser}"}</label>
<input title="$Text{"Library Name"}" name="UserCustomerID" type="text" id="UserCustomerID" maxlength="100" value="$QData{"UserCustomerID"}" class="W50pc Validate_Required"/>
<div id="LastNameError" class="TooltipErrorMessage"><p>$Text{"Please supply a last name"}</p></div>
</div>

Admins:
i think this is a useful post that needs answering. It would be nice to have it in public view rather than PM.

I don't want random user to be able to gather my client list. Do you?

[griffin]

Currently we use a word form with a drop down list with all the customer companies, so they know who we work with. Also its in an Intranet so no external user will get the list.

[crythias]

An individual user will create himself with his own email as customer ID for default.

I don't really understand the idea of an Intranet where one needs to allow people you allow on your network register themselves in an environment where you already know most of the information you're asking the end user to complete.

its just so as for each user to register themselves to the right customer. Not all have a corporate email.

Is it possible to do this or is this not posible with $Data{"CustomerID"}?

how do i edit CustomerLogin.dtl so as to have this dropdown or similar method of selection?

I don't think it's possible ... You would have been able to answer your own question by now.
