Please take a look at here for (maybe) a workaround

Ehm... read my post again.. the "add on the _registration form_" part at least? =)

I want people to add their real name when they register as users on the page.. So you get not only a username sent to you as webmaster, but a real name as well..

Seems to be I was a little confused

So here the correct answer:

Insert this line to xoops/html/include/registerform.php in line 77:

$reg_form->addElement(new XoopsFormText(_US_REALNAME, "name", 26, 25, $name), true);

the code in this area should look like this then:

 $reg_form = new XoopsThemeForm(_US_USERREG, "userinfo", "register.php"); 
$reg_form->addElement(new XoopsFormText(_US_NICKNAME, "uname", 26, 25, $uname), true); 
$reg_form->addElement(new XoopsFormText(_US_REALNAME, "name", 26, 25, $name), true); 
$reg_form->addElement($email_tray); 
....

You also have to insert this line into xoops/html/register.php on line 151:

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

So the code looks like this then:

 .... 
    <input type='hidden' name='uname' value='".$myts->makeTboxData4PreviewInForm($uname)."' /> 
    <input type='hidden' name='name' value='".$myts->makeTboxData4PreviewInForm($name)."' /> 
        <input type='hidden' name='email' value='".$myts->makeTboxData4PreviewInForm($email)."' />"; 
....

I don't know for which reasons the Real Name was left out from registration form, but I tried it on my local site and it worked.

Maybe there is someone who can explain?

That worked.. thanks =)

I have the option that webmasters get an email when someone registers on the page and that a webmaster must activate the account before someone is allowed to log in.. Is there a way to add the real name to the email webmasters recieve when someone registers?

Didn't try that, but here we go.

Insert the following line in xoops/html/register.php in line 246:

$xoopsMailer->assign('USERREALNAME', $myts->oopsStripSlashesGPC($name));

so it looks like the following:

 .... 
    $xoopsMailer->assign('USERNAME', $myts->oopsStripSlashesGPC($uname)); 
    $xoopsMailer->assign('USERREALNAME', $myts->oopsStripSlashesGPC($name)); 
    $xoopsMailer->assign('USEREMAIL', $myts->oopsStripSlashesGPC($email)); 
....

Then you could change your mail template file xoops/html/language/yourLanguage/mail_template/adminactivate.tpl to for example:

 Hello {X_UNAME}, 
 
A new user {USERNAME} ({USEREMAIL}) with name {USERREALNAME} has just registered an account at {SITENAME}. 
Clicking on the link below will activate the account of this user: 
 
{USERACTLINK} 
 
----------- 
{SITENAME} ({SITEURL})  
webmaster 
{ADMINMAIL}

Hope this works...., and let us know again
