Hello. Can someone walk me through how to request the person who is registering to enter their full name into a field. And then have that full name become the data inside their 'user title' area that appears directly below their username. Because this is just a forum for friends and family, and their friends... They are all fine with putting their names in, I just don't know how to do this.

Anyone know how to?

Thanks,
Paul

AdminCp -> User Profile Fields -> Add new field

enter the options, make it required upon registration.

AdminCP -> Templates & Style manager -> postbit templates -> postbit(or postbit_legacy)
Find:

<if condition="$post['usertitle']"><div class="smallfont">$post[usertitle]</div></if>


Add above or below

<div class="smallfont">$post[fieldX]</div>


Where X is the number of the field that gets automatically assigned.

Following on from what you said...

How do I find out what the field number is of my newly created user profile field is? :confused:

Cheers

Goto the Profile Field page. You will see field5 or similar next to your field's name.
