What I really really want is for the people who are bringing out these amazing hacks, to take 1 hour to bring my vision into reality.

What I would like is for potential users to be able to click the "register" button and get set with an option, quick registration where they click a button and it fills out all the options for them. After doing a user survey, the potential confusion meant that some of them put off registration.

Obviously i wont know how many people this put off, but a user lost is no good thing.

Can anyone tell me if they think thisis a good idea, or a crap one ?

Regards,

If I'm not mistaken, most of the options are set by radio buttons... that means that when you sign up, those are set by default to one of the options.

If you want to change the default options, simply edit the templates registeradult and registercoppa.
There you will see something like this:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.

If you want to invert it, put in


Code:

(Move 'checked' from one option to another)

Well you could send all the values as hidden fields, that way you can have only username, password and email on the registration page, the rest of the stuff the user can change later.

Nice thinking. :)
