Adding to database
« on: July 22, 2005, 12:18:36 pm »
Hi All,

Quick question. I want to add a new field "birthday" to the user info, is it ok just to add it to the user table or should I rather store custom info like that in a new table?

Thanks
Dill

I guess it's OK to store it into the existing table, although you'll have to add custom code as well, which will make upgrading hard. As far as I remember, cpg1.4.1 (beta, unsupported) has more custom user fields that could be used for this purpose.
