How can I remove fields from the signup page - category More Details?

Hello,

How can I remove fields from the signup page (New Account)?

I mean from the Category – More Details.

I would like to remove the fields City/town and Country, which are not mandatory fields by default. Then, using User Profile Fields - I will place them in another category, where I will ask for full address, and make them mandatory fields.

Thank you!

Moodle 3.1.2

I think you need to hack the core code for this.  Just find that page and comment out those two lines - actually you can probably do it with css too.

If you are the Administrator for your Moodle site, then you will find a settings page where you can customise the Sign-up page.

Thanks for the information, Mary.

The page you suggested gives options to lock/unlock the different fields (picture attached).

There is no difference on the signup page when I lock or unlock City/town and Country fields...

Also, there are many user fields listed on this page, and most of them are not currently displayed on the signup page... So, there must be a setting somewhere about what fields to show up on the signup page...!?

Can you send me a link to your site In a message?

That way I can see how the signup page looks. I assume you also have enabled manuel enrolments?

Thanks

Mary

Hi Mary,
I just sent you a link to the website.

I'm trying to get rid of the non-mandatory fields - City/town and Country (under category "More Details"). Attaching a picture as well.

Manual enrollment is allowed, why?

Thanks,

Zhivko
