"Original" username in profile...

[fly]

With Ushop, users can change their names or sometimes the admins will change users names for fun. I'd like the ability to add an original username to the profile field. I know this will require a SQL table addition and some sort of update at registration time.

How hard would this be to do? If someone can point me in the direction of a similar hack, I could probably work my way through it. Thanks guys!

It should be easy enough to do:

All you'd need to do is create a hidden user profile field, and when they register you can make register.php set the hidden profile field with the user's name they signed up with ;)

hmmm

But how do I create a hidden field? I know I can create new profile fields, but those are all editable by the users...
