BuddyPress.org

Thanks for your suggestions @venutius. With these the only options I’m going to wait for BuddyDev to update a workaround into BuddyPress Member Types Pro plugin (he’s very proactive, and says it’s now in queue).

Hopefully Nouveau and future BP templates will make conditionally hidden (but required) xProfile fields inert in this state. These fields are so important to augmenting registration on BP sites, and so hopefully it gets baked into the code (instead of having to find workarounds).

I appreciate your help!

Yep tht function works for the main WordPress signup fields, not the extended profile fields. However, thinking about it what this would do would make all those fields options, so why don’t you make all the fiedls optional in your settings, then you would not get the error, obviously it means making fields you want filling out optional but the way Nouveau works there’s not really an alternative if you are going to hide them for some member types.

The alternative would be to create a multi-stage signup form where the first page takes in the basic signup information and member type then the second page displays the extended profile info specific to the member type.

BP Better Registration splits the form into sections, I wonder if that could be used to create such a signup form?

Hi Venutius – Chrome was returning the following errors, and thus I’ve added each of those fields into your snippet (at bottom). And unfortunately it’s still not working (resulting Chrome errors are identical).

An invalid form control with name=’field_2′ is not focusable.
(index):1 An invalid form control with name=’field_15′ is not focusable.
(index):1 An invalid form control with name=’field_4′ is not focusable.
(index):1 An invalid form control with name=’field_6′ is not focusable.
(index):1 An invalid form control with name=’field_13′ is not focusable.
(index):1 An invalid form control with name=’field_7′ is not focusable.
(index):1 Unchecked runtime.lastError: The message port closed before a response was received.

Here’s what I added to my theme’s functions.php (and I am also using template Nouveau, btw):

add_action( 'bp_nouveau_get_signup_fields', 'venutius_remove_email_signup_field_required' );

function venutius_remove_email_signup_field_required( $fields ) {
	
	$fields['field_2']['field_15']['field_4']['field_6']['field_13']['field_7']['required'] = false;
	
	return $fields;
}

The submit button is still seeing the conditionally hidden required fields on my registration form (which are blank), and not letting the form to submit.

Do you see any issues with my customization to your snippet?

Thanks,
Sam

Hi there,

The login link is not buddypress, it’s got the option [PM_Login] so would assume it’s by a plugin with PM in the title. You should be able to delete this in the Appearance>>Menus page though. Same with the registration link, it’s PM_Registeration so the same plugin caused that.

Whats the slug of your BuddyPress register page?

I tried the same details on my site and the registration succeeded

> I cannot see any of the default fields on the Registration page

On this page …/wp-admin/options-general.php
Is this option selected: Membership > Anyone can register

Then, on this page …/wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-page-settings
Did you assign the ‘Register’ page?

Remember that you should not be able to see the register page if you are logged in.

If you still cannot see the fields:

What are the default fields that you expect to see?

Try switching themes momentarily to a WP theme like 2019 to see if the issue is related to your preferred theme.

You could probably hook this up to the action bp_core_signup_user however your code looks like it’s trying to work with the search page, not the registration page.

There’s not unfortunately, not out of the box anyway and I’m not aware of any that offer this. The natural home is the Invite Anyone plugin, have you asked the developers if they could add it as a feature? I makes sense for that plugin to keep track of the invitee email addresses and check them on registration.

Right now I can see it pointing to https://hagdahlseniorcenter.com/register but there’s no registration form there, the plugin should provide some way to add it”

Did you follow the instructions on how to set up a register page?

Register and Activation Pages

It’s not clear what you are asking here, rooms? Are you talking about profile fields? did you remove some from the Users>>Profile Fields page for the Base field group but they still show up in registration, or something else?
