I added some fields in the Profile Field Setup and saved it. But when I then register a new account I still can only put in a username and the email adress. How is this possible? I expected to see my new fields here…

Did you create separate profile groups? If so, only the first profile group will be displayed on the registration page.

If you want to add all fields to the registration page, you have to add them all to the first profile group.

Or, you can make the appropriate changes to the bp-default/registration/register.php template file in your (child) theme. Let us know if you need a pointer for that.

@r-a-y : I have created seperate groups indeed, but I also expanded the first group…

@Paul_Gibbs : I don’t know how to do that, but I can always try.

But shouldn’t this be set automatically after I saved my settings? I don’t quite understand…

What do you have listed in your first profile group?

And yes, Paul is correct, you can modify the registration template in your child theme — /registration/register.php — to add additional groups. You just have to modify two lines in that template for this to work.

The first profile group I expanded with some standard fields like, first name, last name, address, country, date of birth and gender.
Just the basic things about a person I think.

Please tell me how and what I should change in the php-file and I will give that a try tomorrow!
