| I'd like to add a custom registration page, but in DNN 5.0.0 and above the "User Account" module (which I think I need to place on my page) no longer seems to be available. Has something changed?

| Probably it has moved. Is is Desktop Modules/Admin/Security/User.ascx? |

| Thanks for the reply Joe. In DNN4 it was Admin/Users/ManageUsers.ascx. Either way, surely I need to get or create a manifest for the module, in order for it to appear in module definitions, and thus be available to place on a page? |

ManageUsers.ascx is in that same directory.
You don't need to create a manifest, as those are only required to install extensions. This is already there. You can edit this file and the corresponding .vb file to accomplish what you need.
Just remember that you are changing the core code, so this will be overwritten by an upgrade, and you may have to redo this.

| Hi Joe, sorry, I think you misunderstood my original post. I want to create a custom registration page, not customise the registration module. My understanding was that I simply create a new "register" page, then add an instance of the "User Account" module to that page. I could do this in 4.x, but in 5.x there is no "User Account" module listed in Host... Module Definitions. |

"Account Login" is the first module in the dropdown list of modules that can be added to a page on my 5.1.4 site. It's also listed first in the list of modules on the Extensions page.

| But isn't that the login control? I need the registration\profile management module (ie http://www.dnncreative.com/Home/tabid/53/ctl/Register/Default.aspx?returnurl=%2fDefault.aspx in the context of the DNNCreative site) |

I guess I'm not sure at this point.
The standard "Login" link is part of the LOGIN skin object. The "Register" link is part of the USER skin object. If you look at the code for those objects, you'll see where they go.

| Remember that Data Springs' Dynamic Login module is, by far, the best/easiest way to customize registration and login. |

The User Accounts module should be on the dropdown list of modules that you can add to a page.
You can specify the page to be used as the Login page on the Site Settings page. |

| Interesting forum.
I am looking for similar solution but I would like to call DNN 5 DLLs from custom authenitcation page. An authenticated redirected user will be accessing Intranet web site, which is DNN based, in a "single sign on" process. Any suggestion about DLLs I should be adding to the Referencies? |

I probably wouldn't approach things this way.
Instead I would look at creating a custom authentication provider. Joe Brinkman has a blog entry that goes through the basics. Look for it on the DotNetNuke website. You should also study the existing authentication providers to see how they are done. There is on for Active Directory, OpenID, and LiveID. Those should give you some ideas.
There are also some "single sign on" modules that you can find with Google and/or on Snowcovered.

Just to add some further info, to create a custom registration page in DNN 5:
Create a new page: "Registration"
In DNN 5 add to this page the Users and Roles module
Remove the modules from the page that you do not require
Customize the page skin or registration profile as you require (details in tutorials below)
Go to admin menu / site settings / advanced settings / User Registration / Profile Page + select the new "Registration" page you have created.
