Require information on sign in

Is there any way we can require people to use both their first and last names when signing up?

Many times we cannot determine what office they are located at, and many times we need to follow up with an email. It is difficult with just the first name listed - we have more than one Bob, and many Jim’s.

    Hi Kim, we can customize your sign up form to include additional required fields, such as location or first and last name. Contact support and we can help you with this. We've also recently released the new private messaging feature, so that people can send messages directly to each other in the forum. I have enabled it for your account. Go to Admin > Settings > Messaging to turn it on for your members. After you turn it on, members will see a "Message" option on user profile cards and profile pages. Members will get notified of new messages in the forum and also in email (according to their email notification frequency).

    Thank you! I sent a note to support. Messaging would not be necessary, as we would want any information passed about the subject to be seen by all.
