We have been having a lot of difficulty with our self-registration form on the
OPAC. We set up some fields as mandatory but this triggered an error 500
message.

On our self-registration form we have the employment details mandatory:
https://elms.koha-ptfs.co.uk/cgi-bin/koha/opac-memberentry.pl (we have had to
make them optional for the time being due to the error showing). 

Whilst these fields were mandatory and new users completed them an error 500
would trigger when the form was saved. However, the user record would still be
made (this led to many new users creating multiple records as they thought it
had not saved the first time).

The user record, however, would not contain the completed employment details or
the consent (yes/no) answer for whether users would like to sign up to the
Knowledge Share or Open Athens. 

This appears to have been because the mandatory fields in the staff interface
user record form were not being shown on the OPAC self-registration form. This
has meant that the fields staff must complete on the staff interface have had
to be made optional so they 
1. don't show on the self-registration form and 
2. don't create an error 500 message from showing.

Is it possible for the bug to be looked into please?
