Can't add "Gender" into "Registration Page"

I'm not sure if this is a bug or is by design, but I can't add the "Gender" field onto the "Registration Page" (~/Secure/Register.aspx).  Setting the "requiredForRegisration" attribute to "true" for the "Gender" field does not seem to do anything.  Other fields (e.g. Web Site URL) worked though.

Hi,

Testing locally it does add the Gender dropdown to the register page for me. However if you want the user to be forced to choose then you would need to remove the empty option.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Hi Joe,

Can I bother you to provide the <add> section for the Gender label on your mojoProfile.config file?  Maybe I can check whether I messed up on the other attributes.  Thanks in advance!

Great work by the way!

Re: Can't add "Gender" into "Registration Page"

Hi Sherwin,

Sure, the default setting from mojoProfile.config is:

<add name="Gender"
type="System.String"
allowMarkup="false"
labelResourceKey="GenderLabel"
lazyLoad="false"
requiredForRegistration="false"
allowAnonymous="false"
visibleToAnonymous="false"
visibleToAuthenticated="true"
visibleToUser="true"
editableByUser="true"
regexValidationExpression=""
validationErrorResourceKey=""
onlyAvailableForRoles=""
onlyVisibleForRoles=""
defaultValue=""
includeHelpLink="true"
>
<OptionList>
<Option value="" TextResourceKey="GenderUnselectedLabel"></Option>
<Option value="M" TextResourceKey="GenderMaleLabel"></Option>
<Option value="F" TextResourceKey="GenderFemaleLabel"></Option>
</OptionList>
</add>

By changing only the requiredForRegistration t true, it shows up for me on the Registration page.

Hope it helps,

Joe
