Does this forum support any type of adding custom fields? As an example, I want to capture a lot more information on users when they create accounts, and other data.

It supports whatever modifications you can make to it.

It's pretty simple if you want to do it at registration time.

Just add a few fields to the users table and then add the necessary code in the HTML and ASP.

If you want to keep track of things over time, it gets more complex. You'd have to say what kind of stuff you want to add for anyone to give you any details.

I figured I could add the fields I needed programatically, but posted here to see if there was an easy to use admin page similar to the set up page for the site.

Adding through ASP, HTML will be fine. Thanks for your help.
