It looks like I need some way to use a combination of:
verify email BEFORE registration for a specific free level
I have two free levels.
I have separate registration pages for each using shortcode:
[free_rego_with_email_confirmation level=2]
or
[free_rego_with_email_confirmation level=3]
With permalink /join-us/students (level 2)
or
/join-us/patrons (level 3)
The link sent is something like:
[example.com/join-us/registration/?member_id=2&code=92aa3c75473709fa5fbbb2eb744f4358]
which, fails.
Is there a way to verify email before registration while accepting registration for a specific level?
Please explain what the perceived benefit is. The registration process can already send a verification email, before an account is made active. The only benefit (that I can imagine) of having verification BEFORE the registration process even begins; would be to save you from later having to remove incomplete (pending) registrations from the system.
If that is indeed the intent; you could use an eStore Squeeze Form to email potential members, the link to the registration page.
OK, so to get back to the original question…
Is there a way to verify email before registration while accepting registration for a specific level?
What does “verify” mean to you?
Alright. So, do I understand this correctly?
1. You have 2 free membership levels.
2. For 1 of them, you want to confirm the email address, but for the other; you don’t?
No, confirm email address for both.
I thought there would be a shortcode to redirect to the registration for a specific level, but can’t find the place I thought I read it.
Is this what you were looking for?
This is the page that SEEMED to be what I wanted to do:
So I use a shortcode:
[free_rego_with_email_confirmation level=2]
It generates the basic confirm email form and creates the email for the prospective user to click the link, but it always uses the value in Settings|Pages/Forms Settings|Registration Page (Mandatory):
OR
if you use the shortcode:
[free_rego_with_email_confirmation_redirect_to
“http://mysite.org/join-us/register-level-2”%5D
The email for confirmation gets sent but the user is taken immediately to register-level-2 page.
My expectation is that the email with the confirmation link would redirect to the */register-level-2 page.
Obviously I’m missing something!
Thanks so much WZP for your patience!
It doesn’t do what you are really after. The plugin is always going to send the user to the MAIN registration page with the special link.
When users click on that special link and go to the standard registration form, the plugin will know what to do and it will allow them them to register for that particular level. No other registration page is necessary. The following post has more explanation if you want to understand why emember uses ONE registration form for all access levels:
OK, hopefully this will be my last question on this topic:
WHAT is the typical/expected redirect with this shortcode?
[free_rego_with_email_confirmation_redirect_to
The user will get redirected to the page you specify after they submit the form. The shortcode you pasted in there has a typo. There is meant to be a space between the shortcode “free_rego_with_email_confirmation” and the “redirect_to” parameter.
I “THINK” I’m able to get MOST of the results that I want using shortcode:
[free_rego_with_email_confirmation level=2 redirect_to="http://mysite.xyz/check-email"]The “check-email” is just a small page that says check primary and SPAM if you don’t find the confirmation message for your application to register.
Is there ANY METHOD of making the email address and first/last name that populates the registration form as “READ-ONLY”?
Otherwise, it doesn’t provide any control over somebody attempting to spoof the registration process.
This is a big step forward for me using eMember!
Thanks for the continued exchanges.
