Re: [galaxy-dev] Using forms to collect user info at registration

Hi Martin

Thanks for taking a look and confirming that it's not just me.

I've subscribed to the github issue and if I get a chance I'll try and investigate some more myself.

Thanks again, best wishes

Peter

Hello

I'm trying to set up a form within Galaxy to collect some user info at
registration time. The only documentation I've found on this
functionality is:

https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Config/User%20Information

which seems to be precisely what I need.

However I can't make this work as described. When I set up a form and
then go to the registration page, instead of the additional form options
I get a single field called "User type" with a drop-down menu widget
with a single option ("User registration form" i.e. the name of the form
that I created).

I've looked to see if there is a config option to turn something on, or
if I need to create a role, but so far nothing I've tried seems to make
a difference.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might get this feature to
operate as advertised? (Btw I'm seeing this in both 15.10 and 16.01.)

Thanks for your help,

Best wishes

Peter
