How to create new field to store customer twitter handle?
Introduction
PrestaShop is very flexible and universal platform. But you can very easily get into situation when it’s not enough for your business.
One of the most common problem is its hard-coded schema. It’s very difficult to extend records like products or customers to track additional data. There are many reasons why you might need to do so
- categorize customers to different groups for marketing purposes
- you need a new
pick-n-pack
status field on your orders to streamline fulfillment process - multi channel selling - you may want to associate your products with Amazon SKU identifier
- third party integration - you often need to provide additional information when integrating with third party services, for example Google merchant center needs google category id.
When you encounter these roadblocks you usually have to hire a developer, and that can cost you thousands of dollars.
