# Separate Form for Optional Data

 * I’m using WPEverest’s User Registration Plug-in. I’d like to separate the “Required
   Data” from the “Optional Data”. All I am requiring to register is User_Name, 
   Nickname, Password and e-mail address. I thought it might be nice for people 
   to post a short bio, their website, etc. When I set up the form I include a comment
   on the Registration Page that only certain data is required. However, there’s
   no way to separate the required data from the optional data. It’s all one form.
   
   I tried to create a second form, named “Optional” but it forces me to include
   the original e-mail and password. That’s counter-productive. I tried using a 
   Text Box to separate the two sections, but the text box is looking for input 
   from the viewer. That’s not what I need.
 * Comment: I saw another post with a question about customizing the Profile Page.
   I agree with the poster on that. But I also think the Registration Process should
   be more customizable. This seems rigid, forced. Think about it, WPEverest.
 * Anyway, does anyone have an idea about how to separate the “required” from the“
   optional” data? The little asterisk is nice, but I want a “physical” separation.
   Is that possible?

 * Hi
    I put a text area between the two sections and entered a message about the
   optional text in the description. Since the description is below the data entry
   it has the appearance of a heading for the data entry fields below it. The data
   entry area of the text box is a bit odd. If anyone knows a better way to do this,
   please advise. My site is [https://AlwaysRejoicing.com](https://AlwaysRejoicing.com)
