Developing plugin is the best solution?

Hello!

I need a quickly tip from you to start my jorney.
I was given the mission to implement a special Register Form that will work on several custom User Profile Fields, but I have never developed for moodle before.
So... the solution that I am thinking is to develop a plugin that creates both the fields and the Form.

My question: Is my strategy right?  There is a better way?
What should I be alert while developing that?

Thanks!

Hey Duany,

Can you explain a bit more about "several custom USer Profile Fields"? As far as I understand that you can add custom profile fields in the form pretty easily.

Ok.. I will try  smile

The portal will serve the civil servants from my country.
One guy will try to create a new account. He will have to inform his "official id" (that requires a special validation). Then he will inform his zip code and we will pull teh address from brazilian post office service. Then he will choose one of many cities that have signed a service wiht us.
I had the HTML + JavaScript form working ... Now I was wondering what is the best way to integrate with moodle.
