You can use 2.2.5 rc2 which has profile fields adjustable...then it is possible to ask all questions you want on sign up...and within the profiles....

The other way that use to exist before this was a profile hack ....
yet the purpose of 2.2 was people needed these features...to begin with it was unstable...true...and we found no modules working...

since trying 2.2.5rc2 and moving from 2.0.15, we found it more stable and faster...plus no modules have not worked yet...

I am using 2.0.16 of XOOPS and don't want to upgrade because I've hacked so much of it.

I did find this thread in the FAQ:
https://xoops.org/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?faqid=478&com_id=23675&com_rootid=23675&com_mode=flat&com_order=0&

Worked for me to add a field for the Real Name.

In addition I used this hack as a guide to also add Location as another field which took care of my Zip Code problem.

My modifiing the variables of $user_from and _US_LOCATION

Hope this helps someone.
