Adding fields to a registration form

[hjmoore420]

I have a site that I am using OSC for and I want to add three or four other fields to the Register page. I looked through admin and see nothing available except gender and company and few other fields. I went into create_account.php and saw these same IF's defined in thepage and tried to add some calls to the page to set up the new fields and it errored out when I tried to register when testing, it choked on adding the new requests to the DB.

 

Is there an easier way to do this then to redo the create_account file??

 

Is there a plug-in or something I can add to this form that would add easily to the DB??

 

If its I have to deal with the DB i can do that, I would just rather not. I have the page backed up so I have what I have already done, and I can do separate research in getting into the DB but I would hope someone can help and I don't have to go through all that.

 

Any and all help welcome.

I believe that there is at least one add on called something like Customers Extra Fields that does this. You will have to make DB modifications, but the add on should have directions for them.
