So I'm using the SwipeStripe module as an ecommerce shop, and having issues logging member details as customer details. I'll outline the process and what i've tried so far.
- I am currently logged in as a member of my website.
- I can view, and add products to my cart.
- When I reach the checkout page, it asks me to register my details (become a member).
I have gone through the Customer.php, and OrderForm.php files. What I have discovered is:
Customer::currentUser() is not recognising me as a logged in user.
When I print Member::currentUser() it can see I am a logged in, registered member and I can print the details of that record.
Customer::currentUser() is as follows in the Customer.php file:
static function currentUser() {
$id = Member::currentUserID();
if($id) {
return DataObject::get_one("Customer", "\"Member\".\"ID\" = $id");
}
}
I was wondering if anyone could help me understand why Customer::currentUser() isn't recognising me as a logged in user?
Also, in the OrderForm.php, when I change the validation for the "register as a member" form fields (the function is called 'createFields') to Member::currentUserID() it recognises that I'm logged in and skips that section. It's only when it goes to save my order and customer details to the customer DB table, that it can't retrieve my email address.
I know this is an old post, but I've used this code/method all the way up to SS 3.4.
You will need to update Aram's code to work with SS 3.x.x
