Is there a way to add fields to the registration form and make them searchable? I wanted to add a "profile" for a group of users but I'd be duplicating much of what is provided in ./personalize_form.
Not to derail you from membrane but there is another somewhat different option that I use in some cases: *Iff* you have member areas for your members that you provide a custom AT-based content type for you could use my 'MemberdataStorage' storage layer for Archetypes to sync data between the member area object and the member data themselves. That way people can update their member data when editing their member area without noticing. The added benefit is that you don't have to touch any forms or scripts to add custom properties to the member data (only the personalize_form won't show them). As of today, I never released 'MemberdataStorage' because I thought people probably consider this "broken-by-design" but I'm a lazy person and for me it works. If you want to see it in action check out my most recent collective project 'ResearchCommunitySite' http://svn.plone.org/view/collective/ResearchCommunitySite/trunk which includes MemberdataStorage. If people are interested in this, I could factor it out and make a release of the storage layer though. (so far, only some property types are supported, most notably 'string' and 'lines' - 'boolean' should also work but I never tested this) Raphael
