I am looking for a good approach with add/update already prepared (by default) Magento User's (module-user) form. The form can be reached in admin panel by this path:

System > All users > [chosen_user] > User's main edit tab (Account Information)

Now I'm trying with using di.xml in my custom module where I specify dependencies: `

<preference for="Magento\User\Block\User\Edit\Tab\Main" type="Vendor_Name\Module_Name\Block\User\Edit\Tab\Main" />
<preference for="Magento\User\Block\Role\Grid\User" type="Vendor_Name\Module_Name\Block\Role\Grid\User" />

`

This is content that I've already made for a Main.php class

        $this->setForm($form);

        return parent::_prepareForm();
    }
}

and some code for User.php

namespace Vendor_Name\Module_Name\Block\Role\Grid;

use \Magento\User\Block\Role\Grid\User as RoleGridUser;
use \Magento\Backend\Block\Widget\Grid\Extended as ExtendedGrid;

class User extends RoleGridUser
{
    protected function _prepareColumns()
    {
        parent::_prepareCollection();

        $this->addColumn(
            'user_image',
            [
                'header' => __('User Image'),
                'width' => 5,
                'align' => 'left',
                'sortable' => true,
                'index' => 'user_image'
            ]
        );

        return ExtendedGrid::_prepareCollection();
    }
}

If you take a look closer you already now that I'm trying to add a field with user's image.

Unfortunately, I don't see any changes in admin front. Of course, the needed column was added by InstallSchema script earlier to 'admin_user' table.

Contents of directories in a tree-like format:

Module_Name
├── Block
│   ├── Catalog
│   │   └── Product
│   │       └── RelatedPosts.php
│   ├── Role
│   │   └── Grid
│   │       └── User.php
│   └── User
│       └── Edit
│           └── Tab
│               └── Main.php
├── composer.json
├── etc
│   ├── di.xml
│   └── module.xml
├── Setup
    └── InstallSchema.php

What Did I do Wrong?

  • The above solution is great but the values are not set on the added fields..is there anything else we need to do on the same. We are basically overriding the Reviews form. Thanks in advance.. Commented Jul 25, 2017 at 10:58

For adding image field, you can try using plugin and always try to avoid overwrite whole class.

Vendor/Module/etc/adminhtml/di.xml


<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
      xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
    <type name="Magento\User\Block\User\Edit\Tab\Main">
        <plugin name="sr_stackexchange_user_form" type="Vendor\Module\Plugin\Block\Adminhtml\User\Edit\Tab\Main" sortOrder="1"/>
    </type>
</config>

Vendor/Module/Plugin/Block/Adminhtml/User/Edit/Tab/Main.php


namespace Vendor\Module\Plugin\Block\Adminhtml\User\Edit\Tab;

class Main
{
    /**
     * Get form HTML
     *
     * @return string
     */
    public function aroundGetFormHtml(
        \Magento\User\Block\User\Edit\Tab\Main $subject,
        \Closure $proceed
    )
    {
        $form = $subject->getForm();
        if (is_object($form)) {
            $fieldset = $form->addFieldset('admin_user_image', ['legend' => __('User Image')]);
            $fieldset->addField(
                'user_image',
                'image',
                [
                    'name' => 'user_image',
                    'label' => __('Image'),
                    'id' => 'user_image',
                    'title' => __('Image'),
                    'required' => false,
                    'note' => 'Allow image type: jpg, jpeg, png'
                ]
            );

            $subject->setForm($form);
        }

        return $proceed();
    }
}

Clear cache.

  • Hey Sohel, thanks a lot for your response! It seems to be exact what I want to achieve :) I'll give you feedback as soon as I try this code locally. By the way, I saw that you create new fieldset and I'm starting to wonder if it's possible to update already existing one, e.g. 'base_fieldset', what do you think? Also, I am curious, is this plugin approach cover updating controllers too? I need to update some thinks in future here: /module-user/Controller/Adminhtml/User/Save.php - save string with image's path in 'admin_user' table. Sorry about many questions. appreciate your help! cheers!

  • Ok, it's possible to use plugin for a controller, but in my case that was not sufficient. Anyway, your suggestions help me to resolve a problem. Thank you once again!

  • I would also be interested in how to save the value of a new field in admin user form to admin_user table. Did you solve it extending/overriding the /module-user/Controller/Adminhtml/User/Save.php Controller?

Replacing the statement

return parent::_prepareForm();

with this

return \Magento\Backend\Block\Widget\Form\Generic::_prepareForm();

worked for me. Here is the complete code. Adding the field "Accessible Store" as follow.

        );

        $data = $model->getData();
        unset($data['password']);
        unset($data[self::CURRENT_USER_PASSWORD_FIELD]);
        $form->setValues($data);

        $this->setForm($form);

        //return parent::_prepareForm();
        return \Magento\Backend\Block\Widget\Form\Generic::_prepareForm();
    }

}

And thanks @Rob for sharing the clue where to start with.

Just to add another working example, I've succeeded in overwriting the Website admin page. I was trying to add a URL field to the website edit page.

I did exactly what it's said in the validated answer but I didn't add a new fieldset. Instead, I've completed the existing one, using it's id defined in the Website class.

Besides, I'v used the inheritance to retrieve the website model and retrieve the current value from database to put it inside the form (It's copied from the Magento Website class too).

In prerequisite, it's needed to add the column url in the store_website table of the Magento database.

Here is the working result (tested in Magento 2.1) :

<?php

namespace Vendor\Store\Plugin\Block\System\Store\Edit\Form;

class Website extends \Magento\Backend\Block\System\Store\Edit\Form\Website
{
    /**
     * Get form HTML
     *
     * @return string
     */
    public function aroundGetFormHtml(
        \Magento\Backend\Block\System\Store\Edit\Form\Website $subject,
        \Closure $proceed
    )
    {
        $form = $subject->getForm();
        if (is_object($form)) {

            // From \Magento\Backend\Block\System\Store\Edit\Form\Website :
            $websiteModel = $this->_coreRegistry->registry('store_data');
            $postData = $this->_coreRegistry->registry('store_post_data');
            if ($postData) {
                $websiteModel->setData($postData['website']);
            }

            // Fieldset name from \Magento\Backend\Block\System\Store\Edit\Form\Website
            $fieldset = $form->getElement('website_fieldset');
            $fieldset->addField(
                'website_url',
                'text',
                [
                    'name' => 'website[url]', // From \Magento\Backend\Block\System\Store\Edit\Form\Website
                    'label' => __('Website URL'),
                    'value' => $websiteModel->getData('url'),
                    'title' => __('Website URL'),
                    'required' => false
                ]
            );

            $subject->setForm($form);
        }

        return $proceed();
    }
}

And the di.xml file in Vendor/Store/etc/adminhtml directory (nothing new here from the validated answer) :

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
    <type name="Magento\Backend\Block\System\Store\Edit\Form\Website">
        <plugin name="admin_website_plugin" type="Vendor\Store\Plugin\Block\System\Store\Edit\Form\Website" sortOrder="1"/>
    </type>
</config>

after some research got a solution for this

add new property "value" in addField method

with the value you need. see the example:

        $fieldset->addField(
            'user_image',
            'image',
            [
                'name' => 'user_image',
                'label' => __('Image'),
                'id' => 'user_image',
                'title' => __('Image'),
                'value' => $value_that_you_need,
                'required' => false,
                'note' => 'Allow image type: jpg, jpeg, png'
            ]
        );

I hope it will help some of you ..

I just did a minor change in your solution and it worked for me :

class Main extends \Magento\Backend\Block\Widget\Form\Generic
{
//Copied All the code in --- Magento\User\Block\User\Edit\Tab\Main
//added my own field in _prepareForm function

}

If you want, I can post the whole solution -- but I have to revise it because as per my company norms I cannot show the code on public forums. So just let me know if you can do it yourself.
