We have added support in the admin to add custom fields for the customer account form on the frontend. This allows clients to add fields such as “Company Name” or special ID numbers to gather more information about clients.
A parial, customerfield.liquid has been added to aid in adding the necessary fields to the customer’s edit account page. This has not been added to the default template because it does require an additional database hit when used and is most likely going to be used by only a select fiew clients (read Cardhaus). See the partial’s documentation for an example on how to use it.
