Considering that I have the MFE plugin enabled, how can I make the last_name appear on the account settings page or registration page and have it filled in by users?

Hi @abylaikhan.suev.02
You can make the last_name field appear on both the registration page and the account settings page by setting it as required in your custom plugin configuration. For example:

hooks.Filters.ENV_PATCHES.add_item(
    (
        "openedx-lms-common-settings",
        """
REGISTRATION_EXTRA_FIELDS = {
    'first_name': 'required',
    'last_name': 'required',
    'confirm_email': 'hidden',
    'level_of_education': 'hidden',
    'gender': 'required',
    'year_of_birth': 'required',
    'mailing_address': 'hidden',
    'goals': 'hidden',
    'honor_code': 'hidden',
    'terms_of_service': 'hidden',
    'city': 'hidden',
    'country': 'hidden',
}
        """,
    )
)

Just make sure you include the full list of fields in your custom plugin (not only the ones you’re changing)and mark them as required or hidden according to your requirements.
