Hi,
I’m attempting to up date the user front end create account form with some extra fields. I’ve added these to the table core_formfields and connected them to the core.createaccount and they show OK when just a text field.
However, I want some to be a selection drop down. So I created a new table with the data in it to be pulled from. Then I set the type to SELECT-TABLE and in typeparam put in a select statement base on other fields and changing the table it was picking up from.
The select field displays, but it is empty. What am I missing is there some coding to do or is there other tables to be changed to get it to work?

Not really too sure what you are doing, but if you want to create a drop down list with just a few options, it may be easier to use SELECT-CUSTOM instead of SELECT-TABLE and then add the options to the core_selectcustom table.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. That does seem a simpler way and uses whats already there without me having to re-invent the wheel.
