Re: custom profile mod
-----------------------------------
I have noticed the same problem recently - people are able to register without filling in added custom fields that have been marked as required... but as I'm using 059rc3 now, I didn't know if it was specific to that, or to 058 or earlier XS as well... 

*Edit* As I recall, it used to work well in 049... Ah yes, those were the days... 

It used to work fine, 
in XS version 049:
as I recall,
no problem at all...
Its only now that it behaves like a swine!
