Adding text descriptions to sign-up form

I want to add a text description under Username on the sign up form to let people know they can’t use upper case etc.

I think this is written out by a call to bp_the_profile_field_description in register.php but where does the function get the text descriptions from?

Thank you in advance. . .

You can simply add it to register.php (preferably in a child theme file copy) add paragraph tag with nested em element just below the input element ~line 31. That’s the easy straightforward approach.

Terriffic – I’ll give that a go.

Thank you.

Great – that worked. I added:

Lowercase letters and numbers, no spaces, no punctuation.

However I’d still like to put this string in its proper place along with the other input field descriptions. Can anyone advise where would that be? Where are they stored?
