Hey @imath – just wondering if the /register/ link redirect was fixed in one of the plugin updates? I just run an update on a staging site and it seems to be resolved but just wanted to make sure that it actually is resolved before I deploy 🙂
@imath – is it possible to just disable the registration page/slug completely? We’re using Formidable Forms as a registration form for people to sign up to the website and the WordPress user accounts are linked to the BuddyPress profile anyways. Right now – with the slug being /register/ – we’ve created an actual page with the slug /register/ that hosts the Formidable Form which seems to overwrite the BuddyPress sign-up form. If I change the BuddyPress register slug settings to /sign-up/ it creates a new sign-up form which just messes up our profiles/website access. Otherwise I’d have to change the Formidable Forms registration slug to /sign-up/ as well and we’d have to create a redirect from /registration/ to /sign-up/ because the /registration/ slug is in use across the site and on other third party channels too.
Hi @imath, sorry I should’ve been clearer. I’m referring to every slug that contains the word ‘register’. In this particular case the slugs are /register-us-seminar-april-2024/ and /register-london-seminar/
As soon as I remove the word ‘register’ from the slug the issue disappears. This happens both for logged out and logged in users (not that it really matters because obviously it shouldn’t happen at all…)
We’re having an issue where since upgrading to 12.0.0 all slugs that include the word ‘register’ automatically redirect to the homepage. Even disabling the plugin or rolling back a version doesn’t revert the issue.
We’ve tested this with the 2024 theme and no other plugins active on a staging site. I can provide a screen recording of the steps we took in case that’s helpful and could provide a staging site. Not quite sure what we can do to change this on our end.
@combinc actually just found out the /?v= is added by WooCommerce when you have ‘user geolocation (page cache support) enabled. This doesn’t have anything to do with BuddyPress.
If you disable the user geolocation with page cache support it fixes the issue!
@combinc We’ve got exactly the same issue. Do you have WooCommerce installed? Once we disabled the WooCommerce Core plugin the issue disappared.
We can see the same issue about the /?v=seriesofnumbersandletters being added at the end of urls but it doesn’t happen all the time… Not sure what this is about?
