Hi there,

Go to the admin section and in Site & Settings there’s an option for Profile Fields. Click on that and it will display an option to ‘Add a Custom Field’. Click that link and the box to enter the relevant field data will appear, giving you the option to show it during registration and also to show it in the user profile.

I’m no expert and I’ve picked up the basics by watching the tutorials/reading the API docs and managed to get a skin working for my VA, but unfortunately I’m a bit too busy tweaking the rest of it and also repainting aircraft in order for a live launch that I don’t really have much time to develop another site, lol.

I see from your post in the skins forum that someone else has emailed you offering help, so I hope that works out. However, if you’re really stuck and can’t find anyone else, then by all means drop me a PM and I’ll help you out

All the best.
