    Custom properties for a customer (title and newsletter subscription)

    Dear all,

    another day another question (or two) :-)

    I need to add a customer property to a Customer (UCommerce.EntitiesV2).
    I need to store the customer's title (mr / ms).

    I also need newsletter subscription, is that available out of the box or similar to adding the customer's title?

    How can I do all that?

    Thank you very much.
    K.

    The easiest way would be to add the info the the attached umbraco member (if you use that functionality).

    Regarding the newsletter subscription I usually let the newsletter provider handle the subscription list, so all there is to do is to add a checkout pipeline task that subscribes the customer to the service (if he/she agreed to).

    I thought of that, but...

    - the umbraco member only contains the e-mail address of the customer, other address information is stored using UCommerce. It would be better to have everything centralized?

    - our customer does not have a newsletter provider, I think they want to manage everything themselves.

    Kind regards.
    Thank you for any suggestions.

    I agree, it's not optimal. But uCommerce doesn't allow extension of the customer entity, so either you would have to create a custom table with the information, or use the extendable Umbraco member entity.

    In that case it would have to be a custom table for the subscription information.

    Ok, I will probably use the Umbraco member option then :-)
