Hi Lee

Still relatively new to DNN and am wanting to know if subscribing to your site will help me sort out the following mess I've made of trying to insert a new field into the member's user profile (see attachment).

 
Now I can't even login as the Host or Admin to delete it as tryst to get me to update my profile and the field I created was obviously not correctly set up!!

Can you help me sort this out please?

 
regards,
Michael

Michael,

One approach to "fixing" this requires that you have access to your DotNetNuke database.  You can use SQL Server Management Studio Express (free from Microsoft.com) to look into your database.

• Open your database using SQL Server Studio Express
• Find the ProfileProperties table and open it by right-clicking on the table name
• Scroll down the list of profile properties that is causing the issue (in your case, Industry is the offending property).
• Scroll to the right to locate the Required column.
• Make the Required value for Industry false by typing "false" over the "true" value.
• Close the table.

After doing that, DotNetNuke should let you in because having a value for Industry is no longer required.

Having done that and gotten back into DotNetNuke, perhaps you could tell us how you configured Industry and we'll try to help you configure it correctly.
