I want to override the template Magento_Customer/templates/form/register.phtml in my own module.
At the moment the override is in my theme:
app/design/frontend/company/base/Magento_Customer/templates/form/register.phtml
but I need it in my module:
app/code/company/customer/???
Is this possible?
I am developing a module which is adding a new field in the customer register form.
I need the override in my module, otherwise users would have to add my module and also modify their theme.
For that you will have to override customer_account_create.xml in your own module.
So create "customer_account_create.xml" file in app\code\Your_module_vendor\Your_module_name\view\frontend\layout\customer_account_create.xml
And add below code into it.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" layout="1column" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
<body>
<referenceBlock name="customer_form_register">
<action method="setTemplate">
<argument name="template" xsi:type="string">VENDOR_MODULE::form/register.phtml</argument>
</action>
</referenceBlock>
</body>
</page>
Now create your register.phtml in app\code\Your_module_vendor\Your_module_name\view\frontend\templates\form\register.phtml
Please upvote if it works. Thanks!
