Hi Steve

On the registration page i want to add a box that will have the Terms and Service in it that people can scroll down threw it and read it.

I cant figure out what file i need to edit to add this. I also cant seem to find the right page in the documentation about creating a Text box that you can scroll down threw to read all the text.

Thanks

David

There are a few ways to do this, but here is what I usually do:

  1. Add a checkbox field called “agree_to_terms” to the users table. Make this a required field.

  2. In the delegate class for the users table, you can implement a block that will display content just before the agree_to_terms field using the

before_agree_to_terms_widget.

e.g.

Code: Select all
`function block__before_agree_to_terms_widget(){
     echo ‘’;

}`

Hi Steve

Thanks that worked.

Is there a way to make the text area more then 2 lines high, so i can read more then 2 lines at a time?

Also the user can erase the text in the box. i want to lock the text so they cant erase it.

Thanks

David

The textarea tag supports all kinds of goodies including attributes such as

cols

rows

readonly

etc…
