How to add fields to Joomla registration form and translate them to your language



Today I needed to add field to Joomla registration form and translate them to Russian language.  The video gives you step-by-step instruction how do add fields.  However, there is one important thing to remember: if you have your own Joomla theme installed, you have to change registration form (default.php) in another folder.  The form then is in /templates/YOURTHEME/html/com_user/register/.

After the fields are added, you need to translate them to your language.  The file with translation lies in language/YOURLANGUAGE/com_user.ini. You have to add the names of the fields to the file. Please note, that the name should be written in capitals. For example  NAME=translation to your language.

Enjoy! :)
