Maybe been asked before, but I have a problem with the registration tab in Births There are 4 choices, not registered, registered by father, by mother or by other individual. I have several where two people, mother and father registered the birth, usually when bairn was illegitimate, so how can I show this.

If you use the fourth tab "Further Info", you can add as many informants as you like by using the "Association" functionality.

If two names are in the informant column ( known as registration by joint informants), it
always means the parents are not married, at least not to each other.
