Edit User - new field

Hi,
I wonder how to add a field to "Edit User" screen where I could add information about the company of the user. I would like to see this field in "Manage users" view as well.
Can anybody help?

This is a long known feature request, someone provided a patch for it some while ago, but this is still not part of standard MantisBT

Which plugin? At first sight I can't see any plugin attached to the linked issue. There are just some replacements for files of older versions of MantisBT.
Did you find a plugin for this task at another place?

You might be right

. I just have never done it before. In the bug report there is information:
"To use the extension you have to execute the upgrade script in the admin directory of mantis.".
Can you advice what needs to be done exactly?

I do not recommend to use this, because at first sight this seems to be a patch for older versions of MantisBT.
You can try to contact the author by adding a note at the issue.
