Different information on registration forms

[robinsn]

For our paid subscribers, we need information like address, city, state, and other unique info to our business.

For the free subscribers, we just need name and email address.

As it is, it appears that the reg form for the free subscribers has to have all the extensive fields that are there for our paid subscribers when all we want is the basic fields of name and email address.

How do I have a basic reg form for free accounts and a more extensive form for paid accounts?

You can’t have a registration from with multiple different set of fields in eMember.

I’m surprised that it apparently isn’t something most people want. Anyway, is there any way to manually code a registration form in html? Or simple modifications to emember to do this?

The registration form is not as trivial as it looks on the outside. With the option to integrate with autoresponder, affiliate plugin, ajax field validation, custom registration fields etc., it has to manage a few things which makes it hard to offer a varying registration fields option.

With that said, we have actually introduced a member account creation API in eMember. This allows you to create a member account from you application. This API is not that advanced but you can potentially design/develop your own registration form which uses this API to create the membership account. I just have to write up some documentation for this.
