Custom Data in User Registration
April 27, 2007, 01:32:31 pm
I would like to add a few custom data fields to my User Registration in Drupal 5.1.

I've managed to create a CiviCRM profile that successfully registers users in Drupal as well as add a new contact in CiviCRM. However, custom data fields do not render.

Has anyone else here run across this and/or found a solution? Thank you.

1. Create your custom fields.
2. Create a CiviCRM Profile. (where you specify the fields you want to appear in the registration)
3. Configure the profile to show up in the drupal registration.

You can figure the details out from the docs:

Thanks for the speedy reply.

Maybe I wasn't so clear in my initial post but I've already taken the steps mentioned. The core CiviCRM fields e.g., First Name, Last Name, etc. render and function as they should. The problem lies with the custom fields I've created, i.e., select boxes, notes (textfields), etc.. They simply don't render. Could this have to do with the custom id's CiviCRM assigns to these fields?

Thank you.

Might be related to the new ACL implementation.

Thank you geilhufe! ;D That's the ticket I needed. Now my user registration works as intended. I should have searched before I posted but I neglected that since the forum is so shiny and new. So to the mods, sorry for the cross-posting.

Just wanta send props to all the people who've made/making CiviCRM happen, I'm super happy with your work!

(now only if we could get nutty w/ custom fields (quantity and types)...)
