Topic: More registration information

Again a question: Is it possible to change the register form or the profile form. I would like to add a field. My site is for school so I need to know in wich class a user is. Is it possible to add a field "Class" or something to registration form?

Thanks in advance.

Personally I would cheat. If you don't need the the members "Location" which might be the case for a school you could use that. Just change the relevant entries in the language files. By using an existing field and just renaming the output you avoid making any major changes.

In lang_profile.php change "Location" to point to the word "Class" and in lang_topic.php change "From" to point to the word "Class"
