Instructions Tab

Use the WYSIWYG text box to set up the instructions above the registration form that your users see when they click the “To create an account, register here” link(if Self-Registration is enabled in the Login Setup tab of the Configuration menu).

Data Fields Tab

These are the data fields that appear in different user creation sections. You can re-name the fields by clicking the edit pencil button next to each field in the “Label” column.

The column “Admin View” enables fields in the user’s profile accessible by an administrator with User Creator and/or User Editor role permissions. The column “User View” enables fields in the user’s profile accessible by the user. The column “Reg. Form” enables fields in the user registration form accessible by anyone who has clicked the “To create an account, register here” link. The “Req.” column denotes whether a field is required (checked) or not required (unchecked) to be filled out.

When you click the edit pencil button in the “Options” column for each field, you can give the field a Description to convey to users in more detail the kind of information that field requires and you can limit the kinds of characters and number of characters your users can input in the field using the Regular Expression box.

When User Field Upload is checked, users will be able to upload files to their User Profile to view at any time.

User Agreement Tab

You can specify terms of an agreement between your organization and your users here, and you can also require that your users agree to the agreement when they register.

Form Previews Tab

Each link opens a window that shows what administrators, users, and registering users see, respectively. The “Administrator View” link shows the user profile viewed as an administrator, the “User View” link shows the user profile viewed as a user, and the “Registration Form” link shows what the new user registration form looks like.
