Registration and Profile Fields
Posted: September 9th, 2011, 11:26 am
I have searched the forums and thus far haven't found answers on this particular topic. Sorry if I have overlooked it, but .....
Is it possible to separate the registration fields from the profile fields? For example, I want to expedite the registration process for new users by having them simply submit name, email, username, etc. However, because my site is business-related, I need more detailed company information for profiles. I would prefer that my new users be able to set up their profiles at their leisure and not hold up the registration process. I have used the short code to add profile fields to the member login page, but the extra fields that I have set up also appear in the registration process.
Please advise.
