Change Customer Group (Frontend)

[nickwellings]

Hi All,

I'm looking for a way to change the customer group when a customer saves their account information on the frontend.

In 'Account Information' I have an additional field that the customer can fill in. This field works as expected and is visible in the front end and back end. However what I would like to do is change the group if this field (or a tick box) is checked.

Is this possible through an observer of some sort?

Thanks

Hi @madhuresan_ramanan,

Thanks for the link. Would this solution work for customers who are already registered? Changing groups is something I'd like for registered customers upon them saving their account information.

Thanks,

Nick

Hello @nickwellings,

Oh no but it only fine for new customers and not for already registered customers.
