I would like to change the order of fields when a customer adds an address or edits an existing one in the address book.

Eg: I would like the zip-code field to be ordered before the city field.

Previously I had already handled this by copying the contents from magento-customer/view/frontend/templates/form/edit.phtml and pasting them into my-theme/Magento_Customer/templates/address/edit.phtml.

I can still use this method to completely omit certain fields from the form but I can not control the order of the fields in this way any more.

Do I need to also create a layout file since the new Magento update or something?

You can also update sorting customer address field from database table. you will update table customer_eav_attribute field sort_order. update query like below for zipcode show before city.

UPDATE `customer_eav_attribute` SET `sort_order` = '75' WHERE `customer_eav_attribute`.`attribute_id` = 33;

  • Thank you but I would rather not touch the db directly if I can avoid it. This seems like a good way to do it if I can't fix it in another way.

You should check customer_address_form.xml file, please check if the block which is calling edit.phtml file is cacheable="false"

<block class="Magento\Customer\Block\Address\Edit" name="customer_address_edit" template="Magento_Customer::address/edit.phtml" cacheable="false">

  • It is indeed set to cacheable="false". I haven't touched that file yet. Is that incorrect?

The reason why the solution in my theme wasn't working, was because a module had been introduced that is also overwriting the edit.phtml.

I changed the order accordingly in the module.
