How to use textarea instead of text input for user fields?

feature
1

I’m trying to setup a restricted forum where users have to be activated. I’d like for users to have to submit a lot of information so admins can verify it, but I don’t see a textarea option to allow these applicants to enter much information.

Any built-in solution to what I’m getting at?

Hope that’s clear.

Thanks.

No such option exists.

This is old, but +1 would love to have this feature. Longer bios are pretty important for my community!

The spirit of this request is more about user fields which can be requested at signup, a feature that already exists…

Ah I see. I misread the use case. Will create a separate post.
