Editing the Gender Field

  • Quick question - I'm looking to add more options to the 'gender' field, but I'm not sure how to use the options that are already there. Since it's 1:wcf.user.gender.male, do I just add another, like 3:wcf.user.gender.genderqueer or do I have to find and edit a file somewhere to add that option to make it work? I tried just replacing all the existing values with ones I wanted without the numbers, but then on pages like members and profiles, it'd just say Female 18 Member since Apr 21st 2014 , ignoring the options actually selected. I also tried finding the area referenced here; wcf\system\option\user\SelectOptionsUserOptionOutput but I couldn't mind it.

    EDIT: Occurred to me I probably should have put this in help board - can someone move this?

  • I was looking for something like this before, to have option for Trans-gender/Trans-Sexual or similar, and was told it can't really be done editing core files, but with a custom plugin. I just didn't bother asking in the "Wishes for new plugins" forum yet, because I wasn't in dire need of it lol. It would be nice though to have a way to add more options to that field. Some people take their sexuality seriously, get angry and insulted, if you don't cater to their needs or wants. I had trans-genders angry with me before because I only had "male" and "female" gender options, and "male" and "female" forum only sections.

    Yeah, I'm having it for similar reasons. If there isn't a way to add them, then I'll probably just delete the field and add my own custom field - maybe do some edits to how the member and profile pages list it.
