Add Field on TNEW Create Account Page?

Unless I'm mistaken, I think Interests are the only other thing you can add there.

My understanding as well.  Assuming that is, that you want information to go back to Tessitura.  Anything beyond that would definitely have to involve a heavy amount of inventive customization.

We have one SMALL customization in that I created an additional checkbox field in the footer and then used JavaScript to force patrons to have to check that they accept our Terms of Use before creating an account (cookies legal safety move there).  https://secure.thecenterpresents.org/account/create

But yeah, anything past something relatively small like that would be difficult indeed.

Hi Emily, Gawain, and John,

Although not standard functionality, the TNEW Customization Framework does provide opportunities for adding custom data collection on the Create Account or Update Account Pages among other pages. 

As I mentioned, this is not out-of-the-box functionality but for an example of a similar implementation, the TNEW Contact Permissions plug-in collects preferences on the Create and Update Account pages as well as on the Cart Details and Payment pages if desired.

Our support team can definitely connect you with help for implementing a customization if it is so desired. (hello@tessituranetwork.com)

If there is something specific you are looking to collect that the TNEW pages do not collect though, I would love to hear about it for enhancing these pages in the future.

Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul,

Thank you for the information. I'd like to be able to capture university ID numbers when folks in our university community create accounts. We're going to look into other ways to capture this information for now, as we don't have the capacity for a big customization project at the moment. As a TNEW enhancement, being able to add custom fields to the account page that capture  information like this and save it as additional information on constituent records would be great to have.

Thanks,
Emily

Thanks!

Thanks!
