I want to change the registration page of DotNetNuke and change registration fields. For example I don't need the "Display Name" field and want a "title" field (Mr, Mrs...)

For the moment the only way I found to do this easy is to change the attributes in the source code of DNN, in the UserInfo.vb file:

<SortOrder(3), Required(True), MaxLength(128)> Public Property DisplayName() As String

I replace the Required(True) attribute with Browsable(False) then the Display Name field dissapears from registration page.

I'm wondering if there is another way to do this without modifying DNN source code (for further maintenance issues), and what is the impact of modifying theese attributes (By the way I precise that I have rewritten the profile and membership providers) ?

Hi,

This is certainly possible as far as I know. If you log on as Admin or Host the click on Users - Top Right under Common Tasks. Then once the user listing is displayed click on Manage Profile Properties - this will display a list of user profile properties which can be enabled/disabled, required, made visible etc. In addition you also add new fields - the only type that does not exist (as far as I know) is a date type - which would be damn useful for Date of Birth - if you find out how to do that I would be most grateful.

Hope that helps.

Campbell

I have DNN 4.3.5

There is no property for DisplayName in the Manage Profile

Also adding a property with this name does not help.

Bummer!
