Hi, A couple of questions re. Registration Module Q1 . I have added extra registration fields, but can't work out how to change the width of each textbox. I can set the max length, but this does'nt effect the width when render. Q2. I have configured my site settings to navigate to my new Registration tab, but can't figure out how to add the registration module to this page. Any help appreciated. Regards, Paul.

Hello,

1) You can use the webdeveloper toolbar in firefox to identify the ids that the form uses, for instance the text boxes use the .NormalTextBox class, but they are also inside the ID of dnn_ctr_ManageUsers_User_UserEditor, so you can add some CSS to your skin.css file such as:


#dnn_ctr_ManageUsers_User_UserEditor .NormalTextBox
{
width: 200px;
}

Further information on web developer toolbar here:

2) In 5.x use the Users and Roles module and then delete the modules from the page that you do not require

Hi Lee,
That's a great help...... I've now got the Registration module working on my new Registration page.
I'll keep you posted on how I get on with my registration textbox widths.
Thanks for the reply.

Hi Lee,

I have followed your advice and used the firefox webdeveloper tool to identify the registration textbox i am interested in. Here it is.......

<input class="NormalTextBox" type="text" name="dnn$ctr$ManageUsers$Profile$ProfileProperties$ctl00$OrganisationName" maxlength="255" value=""/>

I can't seem to increase the textbox width.  I must be doing something wrong. Here's what i am putting in to my skin.css file......

#dnn$ctr$ManageUsers$Profile$ProfileProperties$ctl00$OrganisationName .NormalTextBox
{width: 200px;
}

I open Admin>Site Settings and paste the above css into the StyleSheet Editor

Any idea what i'm doing wrong?

Any help appreciated.

Regards,

Paul.

PS - I've just figured something out......

If I past the following into my skin.css file (see below), then my standard (user name, first name, last name etc) registration textboxes are extended to 300px.


#dnn_ctr_ManageUsers_User_UserEditor .NormalTextBox
{
width: 300px;
}

Any idea how to do this with individual  custom registration textboxes (see below)?

#dnn$ctr$ManageUsers$Profile$ProfileProperties$ctl00$OrganisationName .NormalTextBox
{width: 300px;
}

Hello,

I can't see a way to specify the styling for individual boxes.

Looking at the source code, each Text box does not have an id that you can use to style it, each of them have a "name", eg. dnn$ctr$ManageUsers$Profile$ProfileProperties$ctl00$OrganisationName

but because this is a name you can't use it to style with CSS, you need an ID or class.

The only Ids and classes available are those that I mentioned previously.

I have managed to create a custom form where you can set the styling for each text box with DataSprings Dynamic Forms, so I guess the same option will be available with DataSprings Dynamic Registration, which allows you to completely customize the User Registration, could be worth a look, thanks,

Hi Lee,

I'll take a look at DataSpring. I might also have a go at writing my own registration module.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Paul.
