HOLD THE PHONE!

I have done every step exactly to the book and it all came down to the way I was writing the Level ID. It needed to be (02) NOT (2). Thanks for the help, sorry for the trouble. I hope this helps someone else who may run into this problem.

Everything is working fine now.

Thank you!

I have read the documentation on creating the pages with the proper codes, managing the flow. When I send visitors from the Join Us page to the Registration page, all they see is “Free membership is disabled on this site!”. It seems I am unable to change the settings to allow free member registration because a “free” user level doesn’t exist. That is not very easy to figure out since I cannot find a way to actually create a “free” membership level.

This is what my Add Membership Level screen looks like:

I do not see a way to create one even though I must do that first before applying the settings for Allow Free Membership (Settings). I did just notice when trying to apply that feature in settings, it displays “Membership level with the given ID is reserved! Please use different one.”

Now, when I added “[wp_eMember_registration_form_for level=1]” to the registration page it shows a form. My frustration is that “Free Members Must Confirm Email Address:” does not work through this channel because the system doesn’t see it as “free”. I would like to find a way to correct the problem of why the free membership level is not being recognized instead of only using “[wp_eMember_registration_form_for level=1]”.

Peter, I am not using a caching program.

There are no options to actually make the user level “free” as described in the setup directions.

I had to remove the shortcode for free registration because I don’t want my viewers seeing it. For now I’m doing it all manually so that I can get them the confirmation email then have them reset their password. That’s the only way I can get the system to accept them and send them their login info at this point until the problem is fixed.

I will add that I’m unsure if it is actually creating a “free” membership level. There seems no way for me to distinguish that level in the setup for some reason. It’s like there is no option to make it a free level at all.
