[Zope-CMF] Editing Member Metadata

[Joshua Lanza]

The simplest way to do this appears to be by adding these fields to the
join form (portal_skins/generic/join_form). When this form is submitted
to portal_skins/control/register, portal_registration.addMember() is
called.  This method will add all of the custom properties to the new
user object it creates. Is adding the fields to portal_memberdata
actually necessary?=20

I looked for addMember() in the python source and I found a full method
definition in MembershipTool.py as well as RegistrationTool.py. The
comments in MembershipTool note that the addMember() method is called
from portal_registration, but the method is private. I also find a stub
for addMember() in portal_registration.py. I'd like to know how
portal_registration gets a reference to MembershipTool's addMember()
method - I don't see that either one inherits from the other or creates
an instance of the other. This is not a show stopper, but I'm curious to
know how this is working.=20

Thanks

I couldn't see this page, it ask me for an username. Could you make=20
it public. I'm also interested on how to solve this problem.

I have also modified the portal_memberdata and add some properties=20
like name, lastname, address, phone, company, and webpage. But I=20
don't know how to instance them when creating a user.
