Now you can include any number of the customized profile fields you've created for your community on the registration form when new people join the community. Choose what fields should be presented, in which order, and whether or not they're required.

  11. Click Save as Default in the Edit Page mode page.

From this point on, users will be asked to enter this profile information upon logging into the site. If you decided to check the Required check box, they will be required to do so.
