Hello, I am implementing custom registration in dnn. So, we have additional properties for registration. I have created Profile properties and inserted data into it. Is this procedure is wrong or should I have to create another table for that additional attributes and save data into that table. Which is best practice?

Hi Payal, This is a very fair question which I am debating myself now. So here is the answer: 1 - If you will NOT have too many users (under 5K) and IF you will not have too many additional properties, I would say that it is ok to use the custom fields that DNN allows you to add; 2 - However if you will have too many users (beyond 5K) and if you will have many custom properties, I recommend using a separate table of your own and link it to the users table via the UserId. This is because the way DNN stores the additional fields is not optimized for performance; That is my 2 cents. Sincerely, Andy
