Custom Register Form

Permalink March 06, 2015 at 4:42 AM

Hi,

I'm trying to implement a custom register form with additional fields such as full name, which will be set to the user's attribute. Currently i'm using this code:

<div>
   <?php echo $form->label('full_name', t('Full Name') )?><br/>
   <?php echo $form->text('full_name')?>
   </div>
<input type="hidden" name="akID[<?php echo UserAttributeKey::getByHandle('full_name')->getAttributeKeyID(); ?>][value]" value='<?php echo $_POST['full_name']; ?>'/>

However, this code only works if I make a mistake first i.e. if I enter in correct passwords and then the user attributes will be set after register.

How can I amend this so that they are added all the time?

Regards,

Dan
