Is there a way to add user contact info types? I would like to use my user database as a directory, including items such as mailing address and other extended information. I would like to have these items available in the dropdown for contact info types.

The way I’m most familiar with would be registering new contact info types via an Ignition module, using the [UserSourceManager](http://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition79/794-beta1/com/inductiveautomation/ignition/gateway/user/UserSourceManager.html).

You could setup a module that just adds the contact types as it starts up and you should see the results you want.
