Hi, I'm new to the world of web forums and have just Installed MyBB 1.4.6. The installation ran smoothly and the forum is up and running here.
This forum is intended for my students at the University, to communicate between themselves and with the teachers. To do this, I want to limit the registration to actual or past students.
I had no problem in setting the "Activation" to manual mode (the number of potential users is limited), but I need some additional data to verify that the user is in fact one of my students.
To do this, I need to ask for two or more additional data (number of the University ID, matters he attends to...).
Is there an option in the admin control panel to set up this "extended" registration form?
If not, how do I need to modify member.php and the database to include the new fields, so that they appear below the password and e-mail and their confirmations in the registration form?
Thanks in advance.
