Customer Custom Fields

[ids]

Not trying to redirect the discussion, but it looks like a solution is presented.

There is a school of thought that you shouldn't need to assign an item to a page if the component item is valid. IOW, especially for a Miva module, Customfields, adding the Read_Customer_ID should be all that was needed for the function to run.

So, are there other systematic concerns with Component ITEMs?

Sorry all, I got a little ahead of myself and forgot to add some code:

<mvt:do file="g.Module_Library_DB" name="l.loaded_module" value="Module_Load_Code_Cached( 'customfields', l.customfields_module )" />
<mvt:if expr="l.loaded_module">
<mvt:do file="g.Module_Root $ l.customfields_module:module" name="l.success" value="CustomerFieldValue_Load_CodeAndCustomer( '
customer_customfield_code', l.settings:order:cust_id, l.customfield:field, l.customfield:value )" />
<mvt:eval expr="decodeattribute(glosub(miva_array_serialize( l.customfield), ',', '<br>'))" />
</mvt:if>

All that being said the most optimized way of getting the customer custom field would be to assign the custom field item to the page then run the Read_Customer_ID function:

<mvt:item name="customfields" param="Read_Customer_ID( CUST_ID, 'custom_field_code', l.settings:customfields )" />

More information can be found here: https://docs.miva.com/template-langu...-documentation

The custom field item has been assigned to this page all along. It was one of the first things I did.

Please keep in mind, that I'm an integrator who takes the bits and pieces and then puts them together to make it work. I have looked at the docs numerous times over.

Obviously, this didn't work for me:

<mvt:item name="customfields" param="Read_Customer_ID( CUST_ID, 'test', l.settings:customfields )" />
&mvte:customfields:test;

but the code you posted did spit out this:

:field:code=test
:field:fieldtype=textfield
:field:group_id=0
:field:id=105
:field:info=Field for message
:field:name=Test
:value:field_id=105
:value:value=This is just a test.

The last line, the "value" is what I need.
