Hello

I am desperately trying to have a user registration workflow that use the content profile but for now to no awail.

What is the expected behavior of "Use on Registration" option of content profile ?

Does that make the user registration a two stage process with first account creation and then the user profile as an edit page ?
Or does it merge the two ? or substitute the content profile to the registration page, creating the account somehow?

Right now it seems to do nothing but I can't figure out where to look because I don't know what it is exactly supposed to do.

As for a context, I am in the case where a user MUST feel its profile before being allowed to proceed and being granted right.
Ideally I would love to break my user profile registration form in several steps buy having the content profile integrated in the user registration process would be a first step.

How can I prevent a user from creating content profile in the "add content" menu by the way ? I need to enforce one and only one content profile per user.

I also tried pageroute+profile setup module but without a success.

As a last resort I may need to check a user as created a content profile on login and redirect her/him to the edit form of the content profile if needed, but it is a poor solution since some data needed to validate the account are in the content profile.

thanks a lot for any advice or explanation.

I really don't get it.

I disabled all login related module, logintoboggan, pageroute etc etc but checking "Use on Registration" does not change a thing to user registration process.
What should be happening ? is there a condition on the content profile for it to be used ? I left the name the same anyway.

Does the "Use on Registration" option does something for someone ? could he explain to me the effect so that I know what too look for ?

thanks a lot

Ok got it, it was a cck field permission issue, I was fooled with the choice of "groups" to display in the content profile "registration" setting area.

Some permissions I had to give to anonymous user seems a bit weird to me, I need to check is an anonymous user with the knowledge of an uid can not access and change fields in the content profile ...
