    Hi,

    I’m trying to use Contact Form 7 to register my users in BuddyPress. I’ve tried two

    • With a plugin Frontend Registration – Contact Form 7
    • Some code

    With a plugin Frontend Registration – Contact Form 7
    I’m trying to use this forum to register users. I’m using:

    • wP 4.9.5
    • Contact Form 5.0.1
    • Frontend Registration – Contact Form 7
    • BuddyPress 2.9.4 (Extended Profiles activated, I need this)

    Steps I followed:

    1. I’ve created my contact form “Register Form” and I’ve activated Registration Settings
    2. I’ve created my page “Registration” with “Register Form” on it
    3. At this point “Registration page” works ok (shows “Register Form”)
    4. Then I go to BuddyPress Settings and in Register Page select “Registration page”
    5. When I go to “Registration page”, all the content has been overwrite with BuddyPress registration fields

    Some code

    Source (2014)

    I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong or simply this code it’s not working anymore.

    Any idea about how to do this (with a free option)?

    Thank you

    @orero It will suggest using Gravity form user registration add-on, it will give you WordPress user meta and BuddyPress xprofile fields mapping option as well as gravity form fields.
    https://www.gravityforms.com/add-ons/user-registration/, it will take care of all user and field validation as well.

    As a free option, you can check https://wordpress.org/plugins/frontend-registration-contact-form-7/

    @vapvarun thank you for your response.

    I have no budget to get Gravity forms 🙁

    I’m using the second plugin but it doesn’t work.

    Steps I followed:

    I’ve created my contact form “Register Form” and I’ve activated Registration Settings
    I’ve created my page “Registration” with “Register Form” on it
    At this point “Registration page” works ok (shows “Register Form”)
    Then I go to BuddyPress Settings and in Register Page select “Registration page”
    When I go to “Registration page”, all the content has been overwrite with BuddyPress registration fields

    Any ideas about how to fix this?

    Hi,

    If you want to go with the contact form plugin then there is no need to select a registration page in BuddyPress amd have to use shortcode on the page and then create a button on header(as you like) and link it to the register page.

    Now, if you want to save data in xprofile fields then have to do custom coding for sure.

    Thanks
