MySQL entry at registration

The *NOT RECOMMENDED* solution that I've implemented on other sites is editing the _setUserDataInput() class in /includes/classes/UserFieldsInput.class.php

This class is triggered when a user's data is entered in the "new_user" table, after it's been checked during registration. I currently use it to email myself when a new user signs up so I can check and approve their account. I'm sure there's infinite possibilities on what you can do in that class.

Again, this method isn't recommended because you have to modify a core file. I can't think of an elegant way to do it without modifying this class. Maybe someone else has a better idea how to do it.

To edit the registration form, the only way is to edit the /includes/classes/UserFieldsInput.class.php

User Fields - see how it have been done.

I wouldn't recommend you to store the user data in another separate table unless really necessary. Why take the long road when maincore.php has to make the query against DB_USERS for authentication and generate a full set of $userdata compulsorily, which is accessible in any file via global $userdata, and extending it will another query load to your server.
