Custom fields are not saving in magento product review - php

Question

I am trying to add extra fields in magento product review.
1. Good thing about product
2. Bad thing about product
I follow this link. I have override core files into my local files.
Here my code:
template/review/form.phtml
<li>
<label for="goodthings" class="required"><?php echo $this->__('Good Things') ?></label>
<div class="input-box">
<textarea name="goodthings" id="goodthings" cols="5" rows="3" ><?php echo $this->escapeHtml($data->getGoodthings()) ?></textarea>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<label for="badthings" class="required"><?php echo $this->__('Bad Things') ?></label>
<div class="input-box">
<textarea name="badthings" id="badthings" cols="5" rows="3" ><?php echo $this->escapeHtml($data->getBadthings()) ?></textarea>
</div></li>
and
/local/Mage/Review/Model/Resource/Review.php
$detail = array(
'title' => $object->getTitle(),
'detail' => $object->getDetail(),
'nickname' => $object->getNickname(),
'goodthing' => $object->getGoodthings(),
'badthing' => $object->getBadthings(),
);
Database query:
ALTER TABLE `review_detail` ADD `goodthing` TEXT NOT NULL COMMENT 'review goodthing' AFTER `nickname` ,
ADD `badthing` TEXT NOT NULL COMMENT 'review badthing' AFTER `goodthing` ;

form after submit not saving value of custom fields but default field are saving to database, i have tried to debug with Mage::log(); and i am getting value for all fields in my controller on submit but not getting in Model and no log print in my Model.

Answer 1

I was facing the same issue, but was able to solve it. Below are the steps:
1) my phtml file: added a custom field 'Email'
<li>
<label for="email_field" class="required"><?php echo $this->__('Email Address') ?> :</label>
<div class="input-box">
<input type="text" name="email" id="email_field" value="<?php echo $email; ?>" class="form-control validate-email" placeholder="Enter your Email" onfocus="this.placeholder = ''" onblur="this.placeholder = 'Enter your Email'" />
</div>
</li>
2) Created sql script to add new field to review_detail table
$installer = $this;
$installer->startSetup();
$installer->getConnection()
->addColumn(
$installer->getTable('review/review_detail'),
'customer_email',array(
'type' => Varien_Db_Ddl_Table::TYPE_TEXT,
'nullable' => false,
'length' => 255,
'after' => 'detail',
'comment' => 'Customer Email'
)
);
$installer->endSetup();
3) Override Mage/Review/controllers/ProductController.php and edit method _cropReviewData
protected function _cropReviewData(array $reviewData)
{
$croppedValues = array();
$allowedKeys = array_fill_keys(array('detail', 'title', 'nickname','customer_email'), true);
foreach ($reviewData as $key => $value) {
if (isset($allowedKeys[$key])) {
$croppedValues[$key] = $value;
}
}
return $croppedValues;
}
we have added our custom field customer_email to array
3) Override Mage_Review_Model_Resource_Review.php and edit method _afterSave and add custom field to $detail array
$detail = array(
'title' => $object->getTitle(),
'detail' => $object->getDetail(),
'nickname' => $object->getNickname(),
'customer_email' => $object->getCustomerEmail(),
);
After doing the above changes, the value for custom field will get saved to DB
