Can the Joomla Registration plugin do this?

ph111 16 Mar, 2010
The Joomla registration plugin looks very nice and simple. I don't want to have to use Community Builder to edit my registration page if I don't have to, but I have some questions.

-Can I add extra fields? Not just a separate identical Joomla registration page?

-Can users update the fields or is it a one time deal?

-If yes, is there a way for users to update photos they might add to their profile?

-If I had a couple of different registration forms according to language, would it work with Joomfish? I haven't installed Joomfish yet, maybe I don't need JF and could work around it, but I'm just curious because my site will be bi-lingual.

thanks,

Hi ph111,

1) Yes, but you'll need to create a new table for the extra info and connect the two with the User id.

2) Yes, you can create a ChronoForm that will let them update their info. At it's simplest this is probably a copy of the Registration form without the Registration plugin and with some code to pre-load the current info.

3) Yes

4) You can create multi-lingual forms. ChronoForms doesn't work 'in' JoomFish but seems to work OK along side it.
