I am new to magento. How to load customer collection to retrieve gender value by passing login email id?

Thanks.

Solution

  • Afaik, Magento does not have explicit email id's for customers, only email addresses.

    To retrieve the gender for a given email address you could use:

    $oCustomer = Mage::getModel('customer/customer')
    ->setWebsiteId(1)
    ->loadByEmail('[email protected]');

var_dump($oCustomer->getGender());

    The setWebsiteId(1) part is only neccessary when running with website scope.
