Custom Registration

Need to let users register on your site? Surely, you can create the registration page with basic resources of WordPress. Actually you may need to have at least some Login Page customization, ability of editing and adding new fields/ checkboxes/ radio buttons – which complicates the process in multiple times. While registering, new user often fills in the required fields with his/her dearest private data … what do you want to know about new member? What is necessary to be aware about new recruit? All of these User Fields you can set in Registration Fields Tab: enable or disable, asked on registration or not, required or not and even the type – text, mail, dropdown list, checkbox and many others. For example, you can set the city of living, address, interests and users will be able to choose a person near them and ask for an offline date. So choose next fields’ types to set them for registration:

  • Text field
  • Email
  • Radiobutton
  • DropDown lists
  • Checkboxes
  • Password
  • Media
  • Numeric
  • Date
  • Scroll list
  • Google reCaptcha

On the Registration Fields tab you can add not only different fields, but divide required registration fields on different theme blocks accordingly to the logic. For example: Main Info, Work and Education, Contact Information. Or you can set the city of living, address, interests and users will be able to choose a person near them and ask for an offline date. Being in the process of creating, you can select which section the field will be shown at. Additional options:

  • Enabled – to turn on the field
  • Required – necessity of filling the field. If field is not required, user can skip it.
  • Registration – whether the field has to be shown on the Registration page or not. If the field is not displayed on the registration page, user can fill it in later in personal profile.

Membership registration fields Don’t forget about the ability to explore Google reCaptcha option, that will prevent you from Fake and Bot registration. Our Supsystic plugin lets you choose a kind of Registration Confirmation:

  • Auto – after registration will be automatically created and activated the membership account for user.
  • Email confirmation – after registration user will receive the confirmation message on his/her email address. To activate the account, he/she will need to click the link inside the confirmation letter to confirm the email address.
  • Administrator confirmation – in this case after the new user registration – administrator will receive Pending Review Email. In this letter administrator can check the information about new user and make the decision – approve or reject the account. To make decision – go to Users page in WordPress menu -> find the user profile -> click Edit -> choose the Status for account – Active or Rejected. Besides here you can select another statuses – Deleted, Disabled, Pending Review. After the administrator will choose the status – user will receive the email about the admin decision.
