Of course it worked by creating me an account based on the username password and ignoring the OpenID URL. If you want to keep it as one form, then perhaps using some javascript to disable the other pieces of the form as soon as you fill in one part would help? Eg. If you put in an OpenID URL then Name/Password/Register/Mail Password gets greyed out. If you enter a username then the OpenID URL gets greyed out. - -- Adam. \ No newline at end of file + -- Adam. + +> It's one form for architectural reasons -- the OpenID plugin uses a hook +> that allows modifying that form, but does not allow creating a separate +> form.
