PersonalInfoAddOn ships and uses its own UserForm. The Foswiki default UserForm is located in the System web.
PersonalInfoAddOns UserForm is usually localted in the Main web. Make sure, the right one is used.

This is described in the documentation of PersonalInfoAddOn: topic PersonalInfoHome.

System.UserForm
thats where i added the custom fields.
my problem remains: no further users in
Main.PersonalInfo

There is more to it than change the UserForm table. Which steps of PersonalInfoHome, section "Documentation_of_the_INCLUDE_sections_in_PersonalInfo" did you follow?

I did:
Set
PersonalInfoUserViewTemplate:
- Include the personal info block in existing pages
- Change the last line in NewUserTemplate
both work fine. the meta is in all usertopics and when creating a new user, it has the meta automatically.
Customize the fields
1. Added the new fields Picture and
WorkStatus in
UserForm
Syncronized the fields in
PersonalInfo
This all worked perfectly. Picture Adding etc...
Then i made a new topic and added
INCLUDE{"Main.PersonalInfo" section="pictures" gridWidth="130" gridHeight="120" imgHeight="85" exclude="TestTest" order="formfield(LastName)}%
Worked fine. But i recently added users and they dont show up.
even not when using this simple table:
INCLUDE{"PersonalInfo" section="tableOfAllUsers"}%
In
UserList all are there. The user topics all have the new look of personalinfo. can add pictures etc.
but the include dont update...

I have 2 remarks to start:
- change the last line in System.NewUserTemplate - this should be Main.NewUserTemplate. Otherwise your changes get overwritten at the next Foswiki update.
- Added the new fields Picture and WorkStatus in UserForm - this should be Main.UserForm.
See for instructions
UserForm.
Please look at the newly registered users. View the page with url param
?raw=debug
. Do they have meta data fields for:
- FirstName
- WorkStatus set to "Current"

thats it! in the new userfiles these meta infos are missing. thanks for the hint! now, how can this happen? because other specific meta information is there,like
%META:PREFERENCE{name="VIEW_TEMPLATE" title="VIEW_TEMPLATE" type="Local" value="PersonalInfoUserView"}%

Most likely you haven't created your custom NewUserTemplate, as described in
System.UserForm - see on the page "A form for new users".

ok, so now i have custom UserForm and NewUserTemplate in Main. I added everything to NewUserTemplate. Now i want to change some UserForm Entries.
In PersonalInfoHome it states:
To customize which fields are displayed, follow these steps:Add the custom fields and field formats to the table in System.UserForm."
Now with the custom Main.UserForm, do i still edit System.UserForm, or the one in Main?
--

Only the one in Main.

hi, if i add new fields to Main.UserForm and Main.PersonalInfo, the filled in content doesn't appear. if also edit System.UserForm
it shows up.
