Well that is the deal: you get something that helps and you help others,
e.g. with documentation.
Of course you can take a look into the source code. It is well structured
and mostly not too difficult to understand. And it comes with a small
documentation.
In the scripts folder that comes with Boltwire you find the code for
commands, for functions etc.
As we are dealing with command here you can check commands.php.
It explains authkey, passdata and register.
By looking into command register, it seems to restrict the saved data to
the password.
Therefore I would offer a second form that comes on register success and
ask for the email.
Put it here in action.register
An account has successfully been created for **{?id}** and you are logged
in.
and write a classic form:
[form]
Email: [text email size=20]
[command savedata email page=member.{id}] //save value from email text
field on member page
[command nextpage main] //optional: what page to show next
[form]
Greetings, Martin
