eMember – Form Builder Conditional Fields and Next Page

[brolly]

I am using WP emember on my site. I have a very long member registration form for my site. I am wondering if I can use the form builder add-on to create this form as it will require seem conditional fields. I would also like the form to be split into pages if possible.

If the form builder does not have these features – is it possible to use Gravity forms, Formidable or another drag and drop form builder to register users with WPemember?

Thank you

Hi, It can’t break the form into pages but you can section the fields out in the form.

emember has an API that you can use to create the membership using your own script:

So you can use a generic form builder plugin to collect the registration info and then pass it to emember using your custom integration script to create the user account.

ok thank you. I will look into that.

Just to clarify – if I were to use the WP ember form builder – does it have conditional logic? (ie. If Yes then section with more options or text field appears)

[admin]

No, it doesn’t have conditional fields unfortunately.

Hi – I have decided to use the form builder. Tried using Formidable with the custom script but it did not work. Gave up!

I am setting up my form… but have some questions. I don’t know if there documentation for the form builder? My questions are:

1. How do I preview the form I am building?

2. How do I find the address of the form so I can link my product description (and sign up button) to it?

Thanks!

After you save the form, you can see it from the registration page.

You don’t connect the product to the form. You connect the signup button to a membership level. The form is connected to the level.

Have you used the emember plugin without the form builder addon? The membership signup process is still the same. The form builder addon simply replaces the default registration form of a level to the one you configure.

Have you created membership signup button using the available payment options from the documentation?

Hi – yes I have read and watched the videos. I am still having issues with a number of things though.

1. If I set up my join button to go to the wp emember product (I am using this with woo commerce) – it allows me to add the product to my cart. But then send me to a login page. nothing else happens. I don’t receive a message, or an email, I never see the form.

2. If I use the form directly then it does create an account. But since I have two paid levels I can’t use this option. I don’t want users to have to choose to upgrade – rather to select the level they want initially.

Also – when the form builder is submitted – there is no way of actually seeing the info from the form fields… I need the user to be able to view this info in their account area. And I need an administrator to be able to view each user’s full profile as well. I have tried the WP-emember profile extended – created the page, added the shortcode – nothing appears on the page.

I am starting to wonder if this plug-in may not be the right one for my needs now.

Thank you for any help you can provide….

okay lets step back a little. Deactivate the form builder addon for now. Fist you need to see how the basic stuff work (then you can add the form builder for the extra feature).

Read the following documentation and tell me which scenario you want to use on your site:

Once you tell me which membership signup/registratoin scenario you want to use, I will be able to give you guidance and show you how it works.

Hi – after some thought I have decided to set up as scenario 2. I will however need an additional form filled in for one of my memberships. Not sure if this is possible – could be an add-on membership that is free?.

Also – don’t know how to see the form builder submissions and display that on the user profile.

Here is my sign-up scenario:

1. All customers fill in main form

2. Customers then go to page to choose their membership level (A,B,or C)

3. Customer pays for member level

4. A & B memberships are taken to a welcome page or their account page

C memberships are taken to another form(s) (+ add a child membership?) to fill in additional details required for that level of membership.

Can you let me know if this is possible?

Thank you so much for your help on this.

The whole form things will be handled using the form builder addon AFTER you have the basic setup and registration flow going.

You will basically create a special form (for the edit profile fields) for membership level C. You can then use the after login redirection for level C and send them to the edit profile page. That way the members of level C will be able to fill in the extra custom fields.

ok… I have already created most of my reg form. So just want to check what you mean by AFTER I have the basic set-up and reg flow going.

Also – I have watched the videos and understand how it should work. But have not found any actual tutorials on the site for how to set-up scenario 2 to match. Will be doing this again tomorrow… if there is any help documents online maybe you can point me to them.

Thanks

Let me ask more specific questions. Is the following now happening?

1) When people go to your Join Us page, you explain to them how the membership works on your site?

2) If someone wants to create/pay for a membership, the first step is to log-in using an existing account or create a new “basic” account.

3) So basically, no one can pay you unless they are logged into the site. After the payment, the plugin upgrades the profile (the one that they are logged into) to the level they just paid for.

4) Users can go to their member profile page and edit their profile details?
