Hi,

I need to add Middle Name and Last Name to the registration form. At the moment I have created the custom fields and added them to my basic details. But when a user registers, the First registration page asks on for the Name, then its not until the second page that is asks for the Middle and Last names.

A long time ago, in the old forums someone had posted how to do this, but I can't find it since the change.

I just want to show my custom field as depicted in the photo:

hi Melanie.

Unfortunately we don't access to the old forum anymore, so there's not much I can do to help you, however I'll leave this thread open, maybe someone from support team will came up with some solution. You can also ask this question on our community page, and maybe someone from the community will be able to help you.

Hi Chris,

thanks for your response.

I found the solution here:

documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Using_f...name_on_registration

It was the field name that was causing my problem it needs to be exactly as specified in the link

Hopefully help others need to do this
