There are two ways do do that. 1. If you already have a page with custom registration form provided by BuddyPress or other profile plugin you can insert this page URL in according authorization field of Forums > Settings > Members admin page. This replaces wpForo registration page with the custom page. 2. 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:

Hi, I'd suggest you check out the wpForo – User Custom fields addon. It includes form builder tools for registration form, Account Settings form and for Members Search form. Also you can manage User Profile page fields and layout with a similar tool. You can manage default fields and create new fields. You can find more information in wpForo User Custom fields Documentation. Check out the addon here:

... 3.1.2, 3.1.3 and 3.1.4 - diff returns no output at all. wpforo_do_hook_user_register() still reads: $data['wpfreg'] = array_intersect_key( $wpfreg, array_flip( [ 'user_login', 'user_email', 'user_pass1', 'user_pass2', ] ) ); Searching the entire 3.1.1 -> 3.1.4 diff for first_name or last_name returns no matches anywhere in the plugin, so nothing in this code path has changed. I suspect the change simply didn't make it into the release. to restate the mechanism: first_name, last_name and user_url are default profile fields with isDe ...

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.

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.

We just released wpForo 1.4.0 version! First I'd like to explain why this version took such a long time. As you may already know, we were getting many requests to create a powerful solution for wpForo user profile system. Our users want to have a single use profile page with ability to customize user profile fields and registration form. And we started working on wpForo User Custom Field addon a few month ago. This addon is released with current wpForo 1.4.0. It allows to built an advanced user profile system with custom registration form, member search form, account settings form and profile page. We've rebuilt whole profile system, then made it dynamic in wpForo core to allow this addon manage forum profile system. With these changes we also redesigned user profile home and account page.

@jesus, Ok, thank you. Please remove this part: // Quitar redes sociales del foro function my_custom_account_fields( $fields ){ $remove_fields = array('facebook', 'gtalk', 'aim', 'msn', 'twitter', 'yahoo', 'icq', 'skype'); if( !empty($fields) ){ foreach( $fields as $r => $rows ){ foreach( $rows as $c => $cols ){ foreach( $cols as $f => $field ){ if( wpfval($field, 'name') && in_array($field['name'], $remove_fields) ){ unset($fields[$r][$c][$f]); } } } } } return $fields; } add_filter( 'wpforo_get_account_fields', 'my_custom_account_fields'); And insert this code: function my_custom_account_fields( $fields ){ $remove_fields = array('facebook', 'gtalk', 'aim', 'msn', 'twitter', 'yahoo', 'icq', 'skype'); if( !empty($fields) ){ foreach( $fields as $r => $rows ){ foreach( $rows as $c => $cols ){ foreach( $cols as $f => $field ){ if( $field && in_array($field, $remove_fields) ){ unset($fields[$r][$c][$f]); } } } } } return $fields;}add_filter( 'wpforo_get_account_fields', 'my_custom_account_fields');

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. For farther support please open a support topic in gVectors Store support forum. This is the free core support community, we don't support addons here.

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.

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!

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.
