Hello.

On the Drupal user registration page (http://par.figure3a.com/user/register), I added a few new fields. 2 questions. I have the fields ordered using weight, but the form is not reflecting these changes.

So if that doesn't work, is there any way to order the entire category of fields? I'd like Additional Info to show up last.

Here is the current lineup with current weights:

Additional Info
(4) Bio/Statement:
(5) Birthdate: *

Account information
Username: *
E-mail address: *

Location
(-5) City: *
(-4) Neighborhood (if Pgh):
(-3) State: *
(-2) Zip Code: *

⋅ Categories: Drupal 5.x

Hi modest013,
I wondered about this issue too, but couldn't find a solution to that yet nor an appropriate discussion in the forums...
But one simple question... how did you get the "Location" category of the registration-form below the account info? I have a single category defined to be entered in the registration called "Benutzerinformation" (in german), which, if the display-order would be alphabetically, would be after "Account information"... but it is obviously not in my case. So I am now more confused than before...

does maybe someone else have a suggestion to our problem?

Hi,
I have this problem too. But in 4.7 version, sort of additional groups of infos was after Account Information. I don't understeand why developers do this :).
This could be fixed in the core, but this is not good solotion for me.

I also encountered that same situation and have created a work around. I have also submitted 3 bug reports that explain the underlying issues / causes / and remedy.

I hope this will give you enough information to understand what is happening and how to get it working.

Note - I use PhpED version 4.6.3 as my IDE and development environment. The debugger, and the ability to set breakpoints and step through the code is the only way I could really understand what was going on.
