Managing Custom User Profile

Introduction

You can create different custom fields under “User Profile”. The default fields under the user’s profile are, “Name”, “Email Address”, “Enter Your Password” and “Confirm Password”. You can create custom fields as per your requirement. For example, you can create a field to enter the date of birth or create a field for the mailing address. These custom fields you create will appear on the registration page and inside an existing user's profile.  You can also remove any custom field added to the user profile and you can re-arrange the fields.

Note: Currently, this feature is not enabled  for Audio Only & Physical Only Template.

How to Create Custom Fields
