Hi there, But if one wants the user to be able to select different characters to write as, how would one go about? You can't create multiple profiles, or can you? Are there other ways to accomplish this? /Krister, Helping Helena with the site.

You could create a content type for that, or you could activate the profile module and allow users to add it to their user profile.

Hi, I'm creating a roleplaying site, where I want the users to be able to create their own roleplaying character biographies. Is it at all possible to create a form for that kind of thing?

Thanks in advance!

Hi and thanks for the explanation. If i were to use CCK, what additional modules would be needed in order to make such character biographies? /Krister

True enough, the core profile module does not allow multiple profiles per user.

There may be a contrib module or two which will allow this. Alternatively, there are other ways do this. One could create a "character biography" content type, possibly using CCK depending on how structured the biography needs to be. Then all of the character biographies posted by a user would automatically belong to that user, as with normal node behavior.

I believe there are also a few contrib modules which allow creating user profiles as nodes and similar things which might also provides features which may be useful. Take a look at usernode and nodeprofiles, for example.
