Adding to personalize_form
Using the new macros to avoid overriding the whole form
Some recent version of Plone added hooks for adding fields (or anything else) to the personalize_form without needing to override the whole thing.
How do to it
- Add additional_memberdata.pt to a skin layer of your theme or other product
- Define one or more of the macros that will be checked:
- top
- bottom
- after_primary
Example
I wanted to add a password reset link to the form, so I created the following addtional_memberdata.pt:
<p metal:define-macro="top">
<a href="" tal:attributes="href string:${portal_url}/password_form">Change my password</a>
</p>
I defined the macro top, so my link appears at the very top of the form:
The after_primary macro inserts your snippet after the Full Name and E-mail fields:
<p metal:define-macro="after_primary">
<a href="" tal:attributes="href string:${portal_url}/password_form">Change my password</a>
</p>
