Hello I am using DNN514, I replaced the DNN Registration/Profile page with a custom module I built (within Admin settings). Now when I click the user button at the top of the page I go to my custom Profile page. But if I add a new required profile item e.g. State, and the user logs in, he is taken to the default DNN profile page and not my custom page. Why is this not consistent and can I change it? Thanks!

I don't know the answer to your question because I don't know how you integrated your custom page with DotNetNuke. But, it's not uncommon to find other issues when you start fiddling with the framework.

For custom Login/Registration/Profile pages, I usually recommend that people look at Dynamic Registration and Dynamic Login, modules available from DataSprings.com.

No Worries! I figured it out...just added a custom registration of my custom profile module to the top of the Login.ascx and set the profile panels control to be the new registration. (Note you can not remove the existing profile.ascx registration info or the login page will not load). As for my custom control...I just added a new ascx to the DesktopModules and then Created New in Host Modules. Thanks!

Great!

(Make sure that you make a good backup and document what you did.  You will upgrade in the future, so you'll need to remember how to do all of this.)
