Magento – Show fields in register form of checkout onepage when the user is not guest

magento-1.9onepage-checkoutregister

I added a custom attribute to customer entity in my Magento store and successfully displayed it in the registration page.
Now I want to display it in the registration form of the onepage checkout. I tried to modifiy the persistent/checkout/onepage/billing.phtml to add my new field but adding it to this file shows the new field also when a user checkouts as guest.

How can I show it only when a new user is registering in checkout onepage?

Magento does this for the remember me option on billing form via javascript.

It simply checks if the field login:guest has been selected and then hides/shows the appropriate fields. In your case you could do a similar approach and simply replace the field that is hidden.

if ($('onepage-guest-register-button')) {
    Event.observe($('onepage-guest-register-button'), 'click', function(event) {
        var billingRememberMe = $('co-billing-form').select('#remember-me-box');
        if (billingRememberMe.length > 0) {
            if ($('login:guest') && $('login:guest').checked) {
                billingRememberMe[0].hide();
            } else if ($('login:register') && ($('login:register').checked || $('login:register').type == 'hidden')) {
                billingRememberMe[0].show();
            }
        }
    });
}

Magento – Custom Customer Fields in checkout

You have a bug here:

<input type="text" id="<?php echo $this->getFieldId('lastname2')?>" 
name="<?php echo $this->getFieldName('lastname2')?>" 
value="<?php echo $this->escapeHtml($this->getObject()->getLastname()) ?>"
title="<?php echo $this->getStoreLabel('lastname2') ?>" maxlength="255"...

Have a look on $this->getObject()->getLastname() should be $this->getObject()->getLastname2()

Magento – Custom customer attribute not processing on onepage checkout registration form

When you say this is Customer attribute, then this will get the values of logged in customer only, if this what you want, you should use the following code in onepage checkout files:

$this->getQuote()->getCustomer()->getJobTitle();

This code will first get the customer from the quote then will get the related value for Job title. Use the name of the input field as:

<input type="text" name="billing[job_title]" id="job_title" value="<?php echo $this->escapeHtml($this->getQuote()->getCustomer()->getJobTitle()) ?>" title="<?php echo $this->__('Job Title') ?>" class="input-text required-entry" />

and in the config.xml, add the following code in global tag:

<fieldsets>
    <checkout_onepage_billing>
       <job_title>
          <to_customer>*</to_customer>
       </job_title>
    </checkout_onepage_billing>
 </fieldsets>

not tested but the fieldsets part should do the job.
