How do I add extra fields to the Meteor Accounts?
Ex: Profile Picture, Header Picture field etc...
I know how to change the password Accounts.setUsername(userId, username);
But how would I add an extra field to the Accounts?

You need to update the users
collection in mongo
. The way to access it is by using
Meteor.users.update(Meteor.userId(), {
$set:{
profile: {
picture: 'url-to-picture'
}
}});
According to documentation, anything that need to be updated by user should be stored under the profile
key
profile: an Object which the user can create and update with any data. Do not store anything on profile that you wouldn't want the user to edit unless you have a deny rule on the Meteor.users collection.
