custom new user information
You can ask for specific information when users request accounts, and have that information stored in Wagn and even show up automatically on their user card when it's created.
Both requesting information of new users, and having it show up on their user card, make use of formatting:
- Create InvitationRequest+*tform.
- Add a relative inclusion for each piece of information you want to invite new users to share, then save.
- Edit it again, to set it as a hard form, using this interface just above the edit box:
To have any of those items show up on people's user cards, just add the same relative inclusions to User+*tform.
Here's the information we request of new users on wagn.org:
{
{
And here's the form that shows that makes that information visible on User cards:
{
- You can use formatting on the relative inclusions to determine their type. For example, if you're including +birthday, then setting the cardtype of birthday+*rform to date will make it so that the user is presented with a date picker rather than a text box to enter their birthday.
- You don't have to put all of the items from InvitationRequest+*tform into User+*tform. They'll still be in Wagn. To see them, go the user's Related tab and open up +*plus cards.
