How to include “How did you hear about our web site" into the Users registration form

Hi,
How to include “How did you hear about our web site (Friend, Web Site, Forum, Newspaper, Search Engine, TV/Radio, Other)?” into the Users registration form?

Thank you.

You can make a new Custom Profile Field and set it to be required during registration

You can make it a profile field that can be filled out or required at registration.

Admin CP > User Profile Fields > Add New User Profile Field

Make sure you make the field either required, or show it at registration, it's your choice.

Floris I have a question about this too?

Is there away to do this so all forum members would not be able to see this in the profile?

Basically I would like to do the same thing for my own knowlege, but no one elses?

Thanks in advance? This forum is amazingly helpful!

Hi,
Now, “Additional Information” in Users registration form has this order:
Referrer
Time Zone
Receive Email
How did you hear about this Forum?

How to change an order to:
How did you hear about this Forum?
Referrer
Time Zone
Receive Email

Thank you.

I think that requires the template to get updated to place the custom required profile fields to show before the default required or additional information. But I have never done that.
