RE: How to register for only one user group?

How-to and Troubleshooting |

Hi Clare,
Please find my answers below:
2. They log in the Wordpress site and can see a page to register, with the WP Foro registration form on it
3. They complete the form that will give them access to ONLY the user group that goes with the level of access they have purchased.
This is a wrong logic. wpForo and WordPress users are the same. There is no way to register or login twice. If a user is registered on WordPress it's already registered in wpForo automatically. When user login it's already logged in for wpForo too. There is no way to login in WP then register in wpForo. If you want them to fill cutom fields they need to go their My Profile > Account page and fill user custom fields. I hope you've already added these custom fields for Account / Profile and registration forms, not only in registration form. So you have nothing to do, just let them login and they'll be able to access according forums. You just need to change users usergroup after registration in WP. Usergroup can be changed in Dashboard > Users > Edit Users screen (scroll down and find wpForo Usergroup) or if you'r admin you can navigate to user Profile > Account page on forum front end and change there.
In other words, they can't complete any form, because this form is registration form and the user is already registered in WP. This user is already logged in and he/she already has Usergroup with according accesses to forums. You just need to change Usergroup of new registered user to control accesses to certain forum. |

RE: auto populate display name from entry of firstname and lastname on same form

UCF addon has the functionality to be able to add the firstname, lastname, displayname, and nickname field to the registration form and for that information to then show up thereafter under account (although this is indeed not working for me but we are working through that) but what I'm looking for here is when someone is on the the registration form, for ease of use, when someone inputs the first name and last name fields, again on the same registration form, for it to auto populate the displayname field on that same form with firstname lastname. The user then can skip populating the displayname field on the form and take what was auto populated from firstname and lastname fields or overwrite it with whatever they want for display name.
On registration form:
1. User populates firstname and lastname field.
2. The Display Name field is auto populated with whatever they put in step 1.
I do not believe UCF addon has that particular functionality natively? I believe I would need to add some type of script/code snipped on top to be able to do this? |

Thank you @offercreek,
All custom field data are stored as a serialized array in WordPress database wp_wpforo_profiles table's fields column. When you create a custom fields you should add those custom fields on according profile pages too. For example on user profile page or on user account page. If those are already added you can simply navigate to that user account page and see all information. Adding custom fields to Profile page: Adding custom fields to Account page:

RE: Problem with ACF fields, Custom Fields add-on, Registration and Account forms

I think the main user account may be linked or synced, like login. I assume it is.
But if you add custom fields to the WP under account, for example some other plugin (in my case Advanced Custom fields), then WPForo is not linking those 100%. WPForo shows them on its registration from which is great, BUT does not then add them in the WPForo user profile, so the user has no way to change them in WPForo.
So what I did was use gravity forms to have an update profile form, then embed that in a tab in WPForo.
It wasn't that complicated once I had the idea.
Its only because we want our registration form to go on a non-WPForo page, so we cant use WPForo as it does not have a shortcode to embed its form, we have to use a custom registration form, but WPForo wont integrate it. |

Hi arvopart,
I'm sorry but I didn't follow you. Do you use wpForo User Custom fields addon? If so why you're writing custom code on registration form? This addon allows to do that in Dashboard > Forums > User fields admin page, just navigate to registration form tab and customize the form.

How to configure topic custom fields ordering in Search/Filter form

How-to and Troubleshooting |

With the topic Custom fields addon, the topic custom fields are displayed under the 'Filter by custom fields' in the Search/Filter form. I'm wondering how to configure the ordering that the fields appear? I tried changing the ordering in the fields tab in the topic fields page in wp-admin, however when it is saved, the ordering reverts back to the order in which the fields were created.
I also tried using the filter hook, wpforo_custom_fields_filter, but can't get it to work yet. How to best resolve this?
Thanks! |

Thanks. All they need is a registration form shortcode, then problem solved, no need to use ACF.
I found a work around, may work for us.
In Custom fields add on, add on a HTML tab, and in the html add the Gravity forms shortcode to embed the user profile update form, that is linked to ACF.
In the ACF register form, add in extra fields that WPForo may add, like privacy checkbox and things. So basically mimic same form as WPForo in Gravity forms.
So this looks like it may be fine now, but embedding WPForo register form would be the ideal situation. |

Hi @daveordid,
you can hide these fields using CSS code like this. E.g. to hide the MSN you should use the following code:
.wpf-field.wpf-field-type-text.wpf-field-name-msn { display: none !important;}
Please add the CSS code in "Custom CSS code" textarea located in Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Styles admin page.
You can find all classes by pressing F12 on the browser and opening Chrome or Firefox Console:
I'd also suggest you check out the following support topic. Here Robert explained how to change the fields icons and phrases:
You can also purchase the wpForo Users Custom fields addon and customize User registration fields, Account fields, Profile fields and Member Search fields based on your created custom user fields:
This addon is designed to extend forum profile system. |

Seeking assistance solving new users not getting a confirmation emails on WP Multisite

Problem: When a new user registers through WPForo, they do not receive a confirmation/activation email.
I know this is a popular question, and I understand from what I have read, that this is potentially a WP config issue.I'm just hoping someone can give some assistance trying to fix or debug this issue.After 3 days of digging through forum posts, code, tables, the WP codex, etc, I have no idea what the problem may be.
My website is running Wordpress 5.6 MultiSite, WPForo 1.9.3, serving 2 domains (same content in 2 different languages - using Multisite Language Switcher to switch between the 2 sites/languages).
The table prefix for the main domain is "wp_", for the second domain this is "wp_2_".On MultiSite there is only one table for users, used by both domains.
I've tested this with 3 different email addresses - 3 different domains, none of them the same domain as the server domains.
Observation before activating (!) an account, which makes me think something is going wrong here;
- When signing up through WPForo, :
The user is added to the wp_users table even before activation. The user is not added to the wp_signups table (MultiSite specific table).No activation email for the new user send.
- When signing up with the WP native signup form (wp-signup.php):
The user is not added to the wp_users table.The user is however added to the wp_signups table.Proper activation email send for the new user. Only after clicking the activation link, the user will be added to wp_users.
I suspect this is a MultiSite specific issue, but that's just a guess based on digging through all the settings, tables, code, forum posts, etc. Maybe this could be related to the WP API calls versus the WPMU API calls to register a new user?
Things I have tested and tried on the main site, based on the How-To in this forum;
1. Check your Spam / Junk folder.
Email does not go to Junk mail.
2. Disable all other plugins and test it again.
This did not make a difference.
3. Make sure your server email sender works well. Make sure you receive emails from your WordPress (on registration or on other cases...). You can check it in Dashboard > Forums > tools > Debug > Errors & issues admin page.
No errors here, tables OK, no issues reported either.Users and Admins do receive WPForo emails (topic notifications, etc).
4. Install SMTP plugin. The new one is Post SMTP. Do a test email sending via Post SMTP.
Test email got send correctly, and the log shows all WPForo emails that do work (eg. subscription notifications, notifications for the admins, etc). However ... the new user confirmation emails are never listed in the log (like they were never asked to be send to begin with).
5. Some shared hosting services, or some Antispam plugins try to cache emails and those are not being sent immediately. You should wait 1-30 min (e.g.: on some GoDaddy hosting plans you receive emails in 45 min).
Waited 24 hours, still no confirmation emails for new users.
6. If you're using GMail Fetch services, go to Gmail Settings > Accounts and Import and click on "Check mail now" link to load all new comments from website email server.
Not using GMail Fetch Services.
7. Make sure the "Anyone Can Register" option is enabled in WordPress Settings > General page.
MultiSite does not have that option.On the main site, "Settings"->"Network Settings"->"User accounts may be registered" is enabled.Not sure if this is comparable to the "Anyone Can Register" option though.
8. Make sure the "Enable User registration email confirmation" option is enabled in Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Features admin page.
This option is enabled. I've tested with this enabled, disabled and enabled again. Still no email for new users.
9. Disable wpForo and use the WordPress native registration form to test. The native registration form can be found with this URL.
I honestly did not even dare to do disable WPForo - being afraid I'd somehow damage the forum data and have to rebuild everything. However the native registration form does work (wp-signup.php).
Note: with "Replace registration Page URL to Forum registration Page URL" enabled in WPForo, the native registration form still works! |
