=== What This Is ===

This patch causes any user-based custom fields to show up on the user preferences page. If you allow users [[SeeCustomField]], they'll be able to see the fields that apply to them; if they're allowed [[ModifyCustomField]], they'll be able to change them.

The patch below was made against RT 3.5.5; I suspect the logic can be transplanted as far back as 3.2, though.

=== How To Install This ===

# Save the text below as /tmp/[[UserPrefs]].patch
# mkdir /path/to/rt/local/html/User
# cd /path/to/rt/local/html/User
# cp /path/to/rt/share/html/User/Prefs.html
# patch -p3 < /tmp/[[UserPrefs]].patch

'''Patch for 3.6.1'''

Looks like it works for 3.6.1 too. I did not use the patch mechanism but copied some code from /Admin/Users/Modify.html and the 'push results-sentance' from here.
