I know, the discussions here are more “general” related, I had a php question which is actually more related to bbPress.
My question is, how to show less fields on the sign up page, but keep the fields on the profile page.
I will explain this with images:

understand?
No worries!
In register.php file of your bbPress theme the following line is responsible for generating the input fields
<input name="<?php echo $key; ?>" type="text" id="<?php echo $key; ?>" size="30" maxlength="140" value="<?php echo $$key; ?>" />
You can use a php condition to check the values of the $key here and if its from the permitted list, then only this statement should be parse else by-pass it.
Hope that helps! :)
Ok! Here you go.
New Register.php file
<?php bb_get_header(); ?>
<div class="bbcrumb"><a href="<?php bb_uri(); ?>"><?php bb_option('name'); ?></a> » <?php _e('Register'); ?></div>
<h2 id="register" role="main"><?php _e('Registration'); ?></h2>
<?php if ( !bb_is_user_logged_in() ) : ?>
<form method="post" action="<?php bb_uri('register.php', null, BB_URI_CONTEXT_FORM_ACTION + BB_URI_CONTEXT_BB_USER_FORMS); ?>">
<fieldset>
<legend><?php _e('Profile Information'); ?></legend>
<p><?php _e("Your password will be emailed to the address you provide."); ?></p>
<?php
$user_login_error = $bb_register_error->get_error_message( 'user_login' );
?>
<table width="100%">
<tr class="form-field form-required required<?php if ( $user_login_error ) echo ' form-invalid error'; ?>">
<th scope="row">
<label for="user_login"><?php _e('Username'); ?></label>
<?php if ( $user_login_error ) echo "<em>$user_login_error</em>"; ?>
</th>
<td>
<input name="user_login" type="text" id="user_login" size="30" maxlength="30" value="<?php echo $user_login; ?>" />
</td>
</tr>
<?php
$count='0'; // added here for a dirty fix to show only required fields
if ( is_array($profile_info_keys) ) :
foreach ( $profile_info_keys as $key => $label ) :
$class = 'form-field';
if ( $label[0] ) {
$class .= ' form-required required';
}
if ( $profile_info_key_error = $bb_register_error->get_error_message( $key ) )
$class .= ' form-invalid error';
?>
<tr class="<?php echo $class; ?>">
<th scope="row">
<?php
if ( ++$count >= 2 )
continue;
?>
<label for="<?php echo $key; ?>"><?php echo $label[1]; ?></label>
<?php if ( $profile_info_key_error ) echo "<em>$profile_info_key_error</em>"; ?>
</th>
<td>
<?php
?>
<input name="<?php echo $key; ?>" type="text" id="<?php echo $key; ?>" size="30" maxlength="140" value="<?php echo $$key; ?>" />
</td>
</tr>
<?php
endforeach; // profile_info_keys
endif; // profile_info_keys
?>
</table>
<p class="required-message"><?php _e('These items are <span class="required">required</span>.') ?></p>
</fieldset>
<?php do_action('extra_profile_info', $user); ?>
<p class="submit">
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="<?php echo esc_attr__( 'Register »' ); ?>" />
</p>
</form>
<?php else : ?>
<p><?php _e('You’re already logged in, why do you need to register?'); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php bb_get_footer(); ?>

Okay. More feedback here.
In my template, the register button didn’t show up, using your code.
I used a software called Compare It, to compare two files. I did that, and I saw that you were using » instead of » so I changed that, and also I changed You’re into You’re.
So I think now the page is working, and the register button is showing.
I noticed that this hack, just makes some fields invisible in the register.php page. A quick fix, like you said, perhaps in the future, this can be released as a plugin.
Here take a look at the lines, I added in the register.php

The code used was from Kakumei theme.

What do ya mean? I just didn't let the php code produce html code.

Well actually the fields are being generated, their just empty. Just browse to my forum, to the sign up page, and check the code using Firebug. http://www.metalsuriname.com
Only blank table cells are generated, not the code for input fields. Anyways I told you that its a quick dirty fix. It should be done with a semantic approach like having the allowed keys in an array and only display further if the $key is in array.
Ok! Here is how you can avoid those empty table cells.

Nope I changed its position. Moved it out of the table code so that even table cells are not created if we are by-passing the rest of the loop
