Hello again.

I'm trying to add the realname field to the registration form in 2.0.10

I followed the instruction fromhttps://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?forum=7&topic_id=15514

The field appears in the form but it dosn't save it. The field is blank when you view the users profile. Any suggestions?

Any ideas on this?

I've been playing around with it but still haven't be able to find a solution.

I added $reg_form->addElement(new XoopsFormText(_US_REALNAME, "name", 26, 25, $name), true); to registerform.php

And <input type='hidden' name='name' value='".$myts->makeTboxData4PreviewInForm($name)."' /> to register.php

I get the realname field in the registration form but when you fill it out and register is dosen't save it. I've seen different variations on the edit to registerform.php but non of them seem to work for me. I'm thinking this change in code was for a previous version of XOOPS and thats why it isn't working in 2.0.10

wait until 2.2 and you will have this option!

It's nice to see that this will be included in 2.2

I feel stupid, I was looking through all the posts for the answers that I overlooked the faq.

For thoughs of you years from now reading this post wondering the samething the answer is here

So, in short I got it working and just in time as I have to leave for dreaded work in about one minute...

Thanks
