Hi

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Im trying to customise the registration page and the info it gathers, along with user info.

I have followed the tutorial at this site and feel confident to add other fields.

Before I attempt to edit all these files and the database:

Has this tutorial been correct for someone? ie any typos?

Is it safe to change the existing names ie ICQ to Hobbies?

Has anyone successfully added a drop down selection boxes, checkboxes etc? If so how?

I was going to alter the timezone but it is way beyond my coding skills with the offset function.

Any help, assistance, and sniggers most welcome.

Thanks in advance

yes i know how to do it, it's not as simple as adding a few lines tho.. you need to create a new class completely. then add that class into xoops.

the new class is added to class/xoopsform

then defined in class/xoopslists.php and class/xoopsformloader.php

once done you can call it using something like :

$example = new XoopsFormSelectExample

it's not all that difficult really, but you'll have to create the class and add the county names in an array yourself.. then name it something like formselectukcounty.php

then in the editing, you'd call it with XoopsFormSelectUkcounty

Thanks for the response

You couldn't help me with creating the class by any chance? or provide me with an example?

My php skills aren't that advanced

Cheers M0nty

Ideally the dropdown should be called "location"

The selections being

North East
North West
South East
South West
Midlands
East Anglia
Scotland
Wales

Would be terrific! any other changes I will do by following your code examples.

Thanks in advance M0nty

ahhh that makes it easier..

i was about to embark on finding a complete list of counties..

ie. derbyshire, south yorkshire, west yorks, essex, lincolnshire and so on..

which would have been a huge list.
