I'm creating a website for travel deals on Shopify. The user would need to enter information such as name and age for every person on the order, as well as passport info. Is there a way I can ask the user to enter that info after their purchase, essentially updating their purchase info? This way a user won't have to have his/her passport number in order to purchase.
Cheers,
Dean
I would do this by linking to a form in the order confirmation email. You can edit this template on the 'Email & Notifications' preferences page in the admin.
The simplest option for the form itself would be to use Google Docs, but there are other services that provide a more professional look and feel. Wufoo is a good example.
You could create a tiny app to upload this info to the customer database using metafields. Depending on where and how you want this info collected David option is ok, though you should also consider placing this tiny app/form in the Thankyou page, using the Additional Content & Scripts form.

I need to show users more information about the products, so I need more fields to save the products.
There are lots of apps that do it, But is there any dev's way of doing it?
P.S. I have found lots of posts about the users adding additional info while add to cart and checkout. But it's admin adding additional info for the users that i want.
admin/metafields/product
Here we can create Metafeilds.
So Stripe support is currently not able to answer my questions. I have a Wufoo form set up and Stripe subscriptions tied to it. Well I have mapped the product values in the Stripe subscriptions to my form values.
However, I am not looking at an open field for a donation form to let a user define a price. Stripe support can't seem to find an answer. My assumption the support staff is combing their documentation and Google to find an answer and they can't, the same as I have.
That said, does anyone know if you can pass an open value to a Stripe subscription.
In essence letting a donor define the price they want to pay monthly.
So I checked with Wufoo and through them, the answer is no. Not right now. You can not add an open value. I have seen other systems using Stripe in which they allow open values, which means it is possible, but I guess not through Wufoo and you will probably have to write your own subscription code to handle it.
I am working on the Customer Templates Logic in Shopify.
I cannot find a way in Liquid for a Customer to remove his/ her account.
I have been going through the Template Forms but cannot find the code.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks..
Basically in Shopify customers can't delete their own accounts like close accounts or something similar.
But at the same time you can delete the customer from backend sections, so you if need this feature then you need to create a private APP that interacts with API and allow the customer to delete their own account.
Here is the useful Shopify forum thread link
discussing the same feature or issue.
I hope it will provide you a clear view regarding it.
I've implemented subscriptions through ReCharge where users can select products and these are saved as line item properties for that product. This was the only solution I could think of with my limited time using Shopify.
Per this question, it seems like line item properties are read-only after checkout. If this is truly the case, is there any solution that enables having modifiable subscriptions where users can re-select products for that subscription product that I can implement?
I'm using Shipstation for the shipping piece if this matters at all.
How can I implement modifiable products (which are subscriptions) in Shopify?
You can't. Well, technically you can but it is not easily done. Since you indicated that you're looking for official answers, I've contacted Shopify via email for you and I've been discussed this with Brad Leclerc, where he said:
That is indeed the case with line item properties being read-only after checkout, so it would need to be reconstructed for the new order. There's no super quick/easy to do that without some custom development to automate the process. If you end up wanting to do that, I'm sure a developer from http://experts.shopify.com could set something like that up.
You have two choices, either hire someone from experts.shopify.com to help or build your own marketing script from scratch.

I'd do this with meta fields on the customer.
meta fields can be used on the subscription product template to make it sensitive to the state of the customer's subscription (new or existing)
Use a order web hook to detect when a new subscription product has been purchased and then update the customer meta fields (e.g. subscription level and start and end dates).
use a periodic task in your supporting private app to:
prompt user before subscription becomes due to update their payment details or cancel the subscription
create and bill new orders for each subscription period
I am not familiar with Shopify, nor Revcharge, but according to the references, couldn't you simply customize the product page in shopify?
https://docs.shopify.com/manual/configuration/store-customization/page-specific/product-page/get-customization-information-for-products
According RevCharge, you should use a Shopify product template anyway..

I'm a first-time Shopify developer looking for a way to let customers enter additional data about themselves in Shopify. Specifically, I'd like to add a page or modify the account info page so the customer can enter measurements. I'd then like to take that measurement information, process it, and return a recommended size for products in the shop.
Is this possible in Shopify? I am trying to figure out how to add metafields for customers to record their measurements, but I'm a bit lost.
This should work, but would require a fair bit of customization on the merchant's part and is a bit of a hack:
When a customer is logged in their info is available through Liquid.
This allows you to reference that customer's data when rendering shop pages, e.g. a Product page.
You can assign Metafields to customers using the API. These are also available through Liquid.
Putting this all together, you can have a form on the shopfront asking the customer for info once they're logged in. The form submits to your server where you add the info to the Customer object as Metafields using the API. Then you have some clever Liquid on the Product page that either does the necessary calculations itself or embeds the relevant info into javascript to be processed client-side.
