A form for new users
If a new user registers, the new user page is prefilled with the contents of NewUserTemplate. That template also contains a user form, based on the form definition in UserForm. You have created a custom user form, so you ought to use a custom 'new user' template as well. This will make your changes safe to future Foswiki upgrades. To create your custom new user template, do this:-
you will return here after saving
- Or create a copy by hand:
- Take a copy of NewUserTemplate and save it to Main.NewUserTemplate
- Set the topic form to your custom UserForm topic
