----------------------
To display the user's email on your frontend, you can use the

getEmail

getEmail

getEmail

getEmail helper function provided by Wasp. This function returns the user's email or

null

null

if the user doesn't have an email auth identity. Here's an example of how you can use it:

import { getEmail } from 'wasp/auth'  
  
const MainPage = ({ user }) => {  
 const email = getEmail(user)  
 // Now you can use the email variable in your JSX
 // ...
}

import { getEmail } from 'wasp/auth'  
  
const MainPage = ({ user }) => {  
 const email = getEmail(user)  
 // Now you can use the email variable in your JSX
 // ...
}

import { getEmail } from 'wasp/auth'  
  
const MainPage = ({ user }) => {  
 const email = getEmail(user)  
 // Now you can use the email variable in your JSX
 // ...
}

import { getEmail } from 'wasp/auth'  
  
const MainPage = ({ user }) => {  
 const email = getEmail(user)  
 // Now you can use the email variable in your JSX
 // ...
}

You can find more details about this in the Wasp documentation (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/auth/entities#accessing-the-auth-fields).

As for extending the registration field for your OpenSaaS project, you can customize the

SignupForm

SignupForm

SignupForm

SignupForm component by passing in the

additionalFields

additionalFields

additionalFields

additionalFields prop. This prop can be either a list of extra fields or a render function. Here's an example:

import {  
 SignupForm,  
 FormError,  
 FormInput,  
 FormItemGroup,  
 FormLabel,  
} from 'wasp/client/auth'  
  
export const SignupPage = () => {  
 return (  
 <SignupForm  
 additionalFields={[  
 {  
 name: 'address',  
 label: 'Address',  
 type: 'input',  
 validations: {  
 required: 'Address is required',  
 },  
 },  
 // Add more fields as needed
 ]}  
 />  
 )  
}

import {  
 SignupForm,  
 FormError,  
 FormInput,  
 FormItemGroup,  
 FormLabel,  
} from 'wasp/client/auth'  
  
export const SignupPage = () => {  
 return (  
 <SignupForm  
 additionalFields={[  
 {  
 name: 'address',  
 label: 'Address',  
 type: 'input',  
 validations: {  
 required: 'Address is required',  
 },  
 },  
 // Add more fields as needed
 ]}  
 />  
 )  
}

import {  
 SignupForm,  
 FormError,  
 FormInput,  
 FormItemGroup,  
 FormLabel,  
} from 'wasp/client/auth'  
  
export const SignupPage = () => {  
 return (  
 <SignupForm  
 additionalFields={[  
 {  
 name: 'address',  
 label: 'Address',  
 type: 'input',  
 validations: {  
 required: 'Address is required',  
 },  
 },  
 // Add more fields as needed
 ]}  
 />  
 )  
}

import {  
 SignupForm,  
 FormError,  
 FormInput,  
 FormItemGroup,  
 FormLabel,  
} from 'wasp/client/auth'  
  
export const SignupPage = () => {  
 return (  
 <SignupForm  
 additionalFields={[  
 {  
 name: 'address',  
 label: 'Address',  
 type: 'input',  
 validations: {  
 required: 'Address is required',  
 },  
 },  
 // Add more fields as needed
 ]}  
 />  
 )  
}

You can find more details about this in the Wasp documentation (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/auth/overview#signupform-customization).

Remember, for the server to know how to save these extra fields to the database, you need to define the

auth.methods.{authMethod}.userSignupFields

auth.methods.{authMethod}.userSignupFields

auth.methods.{authMethod}.userSignupFields

auth.methods.{authMethod}.userSignupFields field in your

main.wasp

main.wasp

file. Here's an example:

If you are using the SaaS template you can check @src/user/AccountPage.tsx
