You can create custom profile fields that will be displayed along with our standard required profile fields for each person. This is useful if you are wanting to ask for additional information beyond our standard fields in the person addition process such as 'Shirt Size' with a list of choices to choose from. You can specify which are required and in what order they display. For fields with possible answers like drop down lists, separate your answers with commas.You need to setup your custom profile fields first, if you have not already completed it, so that when you are adding people, these fields will be there to accept the data.
To create the custom profile fields:Within the system start adding question types to the form. You can select the following and click 'Add'.
Single Line Text - Good for fields like First Name or Last Name
Multi Line Text - Good for allowing a comment or message field.
Drop Down List - Allows the user to see a list of choices but can only choose 1.
Checkbox List - Allows the user to see a list of choices and choose more than 1.
Checkbox - Good for a question like "Have Children?" Allows the user to check for Yes or No.
Radio Button list - Allows user to see a list of choices but can choose only 1.
Once you have added your question type to the form, give the question a name in the field label column. Continue adding types (questions) until finished. Click Save. If you want to edit these questions at anytime, access the custom profile fields tab as detailed above, and when viewing your questions, make the necessary edits, click the '-' button to remove a question, or click the 'Reorder' button to reorder your questions. When you are finished, click 'Save'.
Form Spam Blocker: This adds a simple math question that SPAM bots can not answer and therefore alleviates your site from getting several spam member additions. It is highly recommended to leave this turned on to prevent SPAM, however, you can disable it if you would like to do so.
