Thanks for that, but I haven’t really gotten anywhere.
The userextra plugin doesn’t do the business – I want to add fields to the registration.
I think it should be quite simple – anyone? Should I hack wp_login, e.g. add something like
<label><?php _e(‘Music Preference:’) ?>
<input type=”text” name=”user_music” id=”user_music” class=”input” value=”<?php echo attribute_escape(stripslashes($user_login)); ?>” size=”20″ tabindex=”10″ /></label>
</p>
How can I get drop-downs, checkboxes etc?
And how can I get these added details to come up on the “users” tab?
I have this, but can’t get it to work.

global $errors;
if ( empty( $_POST[‘color’] ) ) $errors[‘color’] = ‘ERROR: You need to fill in the color field!’;
else {
// Do something with the color here, like save it to the database
}
}
?>
on the cimy-user website there is a comment that says that plugin is obsolete
i wish wordpess made the login and register forms an actual form that can be customized
