User Registration Form Extension

Next stage.

For the site I need to extend the standard User Registration.

Details of how to do this can be found here (steps 1 & 2), here (video) and here.

Simply, do the following:

1. Add new fields to the JOS_USERS table. The new fields are added like this:

alter table jos_users add (firstname varchar(100))
alter table jos_users add (middlenames varchar(100))
alter table jos_users add (surname varchar(100))
alter table jos_users add (title varchar(20))
alter table jos_users add (biography text)
alter table jos_users add (contactnumber varchar(50))
alter table jos_users add (mobilenumber varchar(50))
alter table jos_users add (camerainfo varchar(100))
alter table jos_users add (termsandconditions tinyint(4) NOT NULL default '0')

2. Edit libraries/joomla/database/table/user.php (around line 118):

var $firstname          = null;
var $middlenames        = null;
var $surname            = null;
var $title              = null;
var $biography          = null;
var $contactnumber      = null;
var $mobilenumber       = null;
var $camerainfo         = null;
var $termsandconditions = null;

3. Edit libraries/joomla/user/user.php (around line 138):

var $firstname          = null;
var $middlenames        = null;
var $surname            = null;
var $title              = null;
var $biography          = null;
var $contactnumber      = null;
var $mobilenumber       = null;
var $camerainfo         = null;
var $termsandconditions = null;

4. Edit com_user/views/user/tmpl/form.php (around line 29).
Add the new fields (and in this case i commented out the 'name' field).

5. Edit com_user/views/register/tmpl/default.php (around line 24).

Login Module
To use this, we need to add a login module. So, in admin, go to Module Manager and add a Login module.
