In past I had worked on Dotnetnuke v3.x. I start exploring DNN 4.4.1 today and found major work done to have custom user profile. All these changes are not reflected in the documentation.
Particularly I was trying to nail down how registration page shows following fields:
User Name
First Name:
Last Name:
Display Name:
I looked under admin\controls\user.ascx control, which has txtFirstName, txtLastName, txtUserName…txtWebSite and txtIM fields.
I also looked in the Admin->User Accounts->User Settings and found one can add/remove custom profile attributes.
I did not see Display Name attribute? Which control add the Display Name field to the registration page. To better understand the flow of registartion/custom profile showing/hiding attributes. Could someone point out the right spots in the code or threads on the forum to better understand the work flow.
many thanks,
sgill

I want to do similar work. I tried to edit "user control", but problem is... changes i make in code of admin\controls\user.ascx control are not getting reflected in application. Its appearance remains same as default. In short, i want to fully customize registration page. Any help will be much appreciated.

DNN has defined a small group of fields as - REQUIRED.

As a result you cannot change or alter the appearance or layout of those fields in the standard registration module.

The rendering and display of all the fields on the standard DNN rego page are controlled by the PropertyEditorControl.

There is very little that you can do by editing user.ascx to control layout since none of the real LAYOUT of the rego page occurs inside user.ascx

Instead all the field layout happens inside the properly editor control tag -

<dnn:propertyeditorcontrol id="UserEditor" runat="Server"
 enableClientValidation = "true"
 sortmode="SortOrderAttribute"
 labelstyle-cssclass="SubHead"
 helpstyle-cssclass="Help"
 editcontrolstyle-cssclass="NormalTextBox"
 labelwidth="125px"
 editcontrolwidth="150px"
 width="275px"
 editmode="Edit"
 errorstyle-cssclass="NormalRed"/>

Have a look inside /library/Controls/PropertyEditor   PropertyEditorControl.vb  for starters.

PS - if you really want to control the exact layout and nature of your sites registration page - then the best bet is to either look at a 3rd party rego module - there are a couple on snowcovered.

Or sit down and code your own - the rego process itself is really quite straight forward ... and you can hack most of the code out of the Update section of the existing rego module UPDATE / SAVE code.

Then you can have any layout you want for your own module
