Question

When new users register, I'd like them to enter their password twice for verification purposes.

Answer

Put %% macro register %% from standard.tpl into webx.tpl, and add:

<tr><td>Retype password: </td<<td><input name=passwordCheck type=password size=30 maxlength=50 value="%% editPassword %%"></td></tr>%%nop%%

below the two normal "Choose a password" dialogs.

Then also create:

%% macro registerProcessFilter %%
%% if form.password != form.passwordCheck %%
<html>Passwords do not match!</html>
%% endif %%
%% endmacro %%
