The easiest thing to do is to copy registration/register.php from bp-default into your child theme. Search for the place where Sign Up Complete! appears, and put your additional paragraph after that.
Thanks, I’ll use that as my default strategy but i was trying to be creative so that future upgrades wouldn’t require me to have to refresh the file. I tried doing the following:
function postSignup_msg() {
echo “blah, blah, blah”;
echo “more blah, blah, blah”;
}
add_action( ‘bp_complete_signup’, ‘postSignup_msg’, 2 );
To my surprise, a simple “echo” command doesn’t play nice with outputting information while maintaining the theme formatting and, frankly, i don’t know another way to output the info so that it will better align. any suggestions?
The problem with hooking to bp_complete_signup is that it’s not called from within a template, so your code probably echoes above the entire template stuff. You have to find a hook in the template, and there aren’t really any obvious ones. Here’s one thing you might try (untested):
`function postSignup_msg() {
if ( ‘completed-confirmation’ == bp_get_current_signup_step() ) {
echo “blah blah blah”;
}
}
add_action( ‘template_notices’, ‘postSignup_msg’ );`
It’s kind of an abuse of what template_notices is meant to do, but it might work.
Hey, that works! Thanks a bunch!!
I understand why that hook is a better selection and why the conditional is necessary but, I must admit, I don’t fully understand the concept of templates. I keep learning new stuff as i come across it so, I guess, this becomes yet another new topic to start digging around in BP forums to learn about.
Very clever solution. Thank you.
