3.8 The user menuThe user menu allows us to define the field structure of website user files. For each field we may define a type of information to be registered, as well as any stipulation the field be a compulsory requirement to be filled in whenever a user registers. 3.8.1 Edit user fieldsEditing user fields is made from the option ‘Fields’ on the user menu in the backoffice technical bar. 
By clicking on this option the already existing field structure comes up on the screen. 
For each, we have information detailing the field name, the field type, the size in characters (text field), the need for the field to be used in order to start a session (for authentication), the need for the field to be contained in the registration, where its completion during the registration process is compulsory and finally the definition of unique key, that is, the definition of the field as a single user identifier. Further to the right are the options to remove and edit the field. In order to edit the field, select the ‘edit’ option. 
As to the selected field, we can modify its name, field type, size of characters (only for the text type fields) and also whether it is compulsory in starting a session. This latter requirement is contained in the registration file, as well as the requirement to complete the register and the setting of parameters as an identifying field registry. After having made all the modifications, simply press on the ‘Modify’ button to register them to the system.
