Hello Friends,

This tutorial is focused on adding an extra field in the registration form example in laravel. We will extra field in the standard registration form in laravel. if you want to see an example of adding a custom field in the default registration form of laravel. step by step explain add an extra field to a registration form in laravel.

The registration form has name, email, password, and confirm password fields. But if you want to customize the registration form then how you will be able to do this? If you want to add gender, mobile no, avatar, city, country, address, etc. I will show you step-by-step how to add extra fields to the registration form in laravel.

In This example, we will add Gender and Mobile No. fields will add to the user's table. Then we will add it to the registration form. so, let's see the following steps:

You can add a laravel password-less login with laravel 6, laravel 7, laravel 8, and laravel 9 versions.

Here are the all steps.

This is optional; however, if you have not created the laravel app, then you may go ahead and execute the below command:

composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app

After successfully installing the laravel app then configuring the database setup. We will open the ".env" file and change the database name, username and password in the env file.

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=Enter_Your_Database_Name
DB_USERNAME=Enter_Your_Database_Username
DB_PASSWORD=Enter_Your_Database_Password

Laravel's laravel/ui package provides a quick way to scaffold all of the routes and views you need for authentication using a few simple commands:

composer require laravel/ui

Next, we need to generate auth scaffold with bootstrap, so let's run the below command:

php artisan ui bootstrap --auth

Then, install npm packages using the below command:

npm install

At last, built bootstrap CSS using the below command:

npm run build

In this step, we need to create a new migration to add gender and mobile_no fields to the users table. so let's run the below code and run migration.

php artisan make:migration add_new_fields_users

<?php
  
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
  
return new class extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::table('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->tinyInteger('gender')->default(0);
            $table->string('mobile_no')->nullable();
        });
    }
  
    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::table('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->dropColumn('gender');
            $table->dropColumn('mobile_no');
        });
    }
};

Now, run migration with the following command:

php artisan migrate

Next, update the User.php model file.

<?php
    
namespace App\Models;
    
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Laravel\Sanctum\HasApiTokens;
  
class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use HasApiTokens, HasFactory, Notifiable;
 
    /**
     * The attributes that are mass assignable.
     *
     * @var array

     */
    protected $fillable = [
        'name',
        'email',
        'password',
        'mobile_no',
        'gender'
    ];
  
    /**
     * The attributes that should be hidden for serialization.
     *
     * @var array

     */
    protected $hidden = [
        'password',
        'remember_token',
    ];
  
    /**
     * The attributes that should be cast.
     *
     * @var array

     */
    protected $casts = [
        'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',
    ];
}

In this step, we will update auth register blade file. in this file, we will add new fields. so let's update the following file:

@extends('layouts.app')
  
@section('content')
<div class="container">
    <div class="row justify-content-center">
        <div class="col-md-8">
            <div class="card">
                <div class="card-header">{{ __('Register') }}</div>
  
                <div class="card-body">
                    <form method="POST" action="{{ route('register') }}">
                        @csrf
  
                        <div class="row mb-3">
                            <label for="name" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-end">{{ __('Name') }}</label>
  
                            <div class="col-md-6">
                                <input id="name" type="text" class="form-control @error('name') is-invalid @enderror" name="name" value="{{ old('name') }}" required autocomplete="name" autofocus>
  
                                @error('name')
                                    <span class="invalid-feedback" role="alert">
                                        <strong>{{ $message }}</strong>
                                    </span>
                                @enderror
                            </div>
                        </div>
  
                        <div class="row mb-3">
                            <label for="email" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-end">{{ __('Email Address') }}</label>
  
                            <div class="col-md-6">
                                <input id="email" type="email" class="form-control @error('email') is-invalid @enderror" name="email" value="{{ old('email') }}" required autocomplete="email">
  
                                @error('email')
                                    <span class="invalid-feedback" role="alert">
                                        <strong>{{ $message }}</strong>
