I'm implementing the user registration function for my site. Does Kentico's user registration feature allow users to provide security questions?

You can uses drop down form control, and use SQL query that SELECT ID, Question FROM Security Question table. The question ID would be what you would store alone with the answer.

No, there is nothing out of box for that.

You can add this with a few steps. Add a custom table to manage a list of questions. Then in the Modules > Membership module, add fields to the User class to store the questions they selected and the answers.

You will need to customize the registration in order to prompt the questions for answers. Also need to add the logic on where you want to ask the security question later on.

@Rui Wang

I've began implementing this.

Steps so far: 1. Created Security Question custom table 2. Added questions to the table 3. Added security question and answer fields to the user class through an alternate form I am using for registration.

My question basically is, what would be the best way to display a drop down on the Registration page for the the user the select their desired security question and have it save to the user class?
