Custom Registration Components

I’d like to add custom components to my user registration page. It is nice to allow them to upload an avatar, but I would also like to display a “what’s next” component that explains what they can do now that they have an account. Any way of doing this without hacking the core?

Yes, you can!

If you have a child theme, move /plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/register.php and /plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/activate.php to your child theme and modify to your liking.

If you don’t have a child theme, read this guide:

You might not even have to do that. There’s probably loads of hooks around, so all you need to do is add some functions to your child themes functions.php file, that add stuff to the appropriate hook. Keeping your theme up-to-date will be even easier that way, if a tiny bit more complicated…

You’re right as well, Travel Junkie, but there’s no hook for the “completed-confirmation” screen specifically.

However, there appears to be a hook called “bp_custom_signup_steps” in register.php, which you could hook into after the “completed-confirmation” screen.
