    Hello,

    I was just curious to know if there is a way to configure the required fields during user registration.

    The website i plan on putting together is more of an online community and personal information such as addresses is not something i need/want to collect. Is there a way to configure these required fields?

    What about adding custom fields? is this possible? A community-type website could use things such as AIM, MSN, ICQ etc...

    thanks in advance...

    You could go into Address.ascx and remove the reqiured fields from the user control or if you do not want any of this information. The easiest thing to do is to set the visibility of the address control to false in Register.ascx


    Hope this helps

    I have tried this neat little trick. All I need is the First Name, Last Name, Username, and Email. I have AD enabled and I have no need for anything except the Users name and ID.
    Commenting out the other fields in the adress file works but I now get an error when editing user information.
    Error:
    Line: 158
    Char: 9
    Error: 'undefined' is null or not and object
    Code: 0

    Don't comment the fields out - just set their Visible property to 'False'.
