Hello Chris,

It is possible to do what you want with FarCry.  Although, I have not tried
doing any of this as I have been waiting for 2.1 to allow me to override
dmProfile (so will be getting into that once our new site is launched).

The login process sets a flag in the Session scope called firstLogin (this
happens when there is an empty dmProfile in the database for the user).

You can then use any mechanism you like to obtain the dmProfile information
from your user.

The mimic the same functionality as is found in the Admin console, have a
look at farcry_core/admin/home.cfm.  THere are a bout three lines of
Javascript there to do the popup (inluding an edit.cfm page to edit the
profile, of course - which just calls a Navajo tag to edit the object).

This is a generic object editing page.

This may be where you are encountering "permission" problems and may be a
"bug" that Daemon will have to look into.

Having said that, I could find nothing in the permissions tables that
implied that dmProfile had any permissioning on it at all.  The
dmPermissionBarnacle table is the hookup between an object and a permission
and (in my system at home) there were no dmProfile entries.

This will probably be one for the guys when they are all back after the
Christmas Break.

Regards,
Gary Menzel
