I am trying to create a user profile:

1. Please tell me how to create Gender option with Male & Female boxes to tick
1a. I am not making this via the CCK but with the user profile module.
2. Please tell me how can I view all the fields as a major sheet (like in MS excel) or as a database.
3. I am trying to create this in the Administrt/ Profile, using the check box option (but it is a blank option ( i want 2 boxes for males & females).

Any help will be appreciated!

Thank you so much!

Regards,

Ali

I am fairly new to drupal but I'll give it a shot.

Create two separate check box fields. Give one the title male one title female.

Give them two different names too such as profile_male profile_female. And that's it I just checked this on my machine so it works.

As far as the spreadsheet database thing I know what I had read is in version 5 it was a problem because the way core profile data was stored. I just went looking for the male/female and I am not sure where it is so it seems things may not have changed. I could be wrong.

I use CCK and Profile Content so everything is nice and neat in it's own table. I can just going into phpmyadmin browse or print it. That is the best way I know how and would recommend it for what you want to do you can include Profile Content in the user registration too.

You should be able to put something together with views2 for the core profile module if you want to stay with that I would think.

Good luck hope this helps

I will try it and definetly update you!
Two fields for each gender ... hmnn.. would they appear in separate lines or together .. let me check it out?

How you used CCK ... I mean the form I am making requests these info while someone is requesting to sign in for the first time.

Even if I make a content type how will i link it with this?

Getting back to you!

You just check the box to show at registration when you use Content Profile
http://drupal.org/project/content_profile

Yes core profile is on two seperate lines.
