“when they put their credentials into the default registration form”
these details are only username and email
“they’re being redirected to /subsite/local-signup/ and have to re-enter their credentials there to sign up.”
they are not re-entering the password, they are entering that for the first time as they were given one after the account activation email request.
/subsite/local-signup/
this redirection is for them to sign in and activate on the multi-site Network level, which is required for default WP on a Network. they then get rediverted back to their subsite.
does that help ?
Ah. Thank you so much Justin. That does help. It’s not quite the user experience I want, but I understand it. I think I can fix the user’s experience by changing the redirect to a landing page that explains they need to check their email and then sign in.
Hey Justin, is there a way to redirect a user to a landing page instead of sending them to /subsite/local-signup/
My site sends them to subsite/local-signup/ but asks for username and email again, and users think it’s broken. I have looked everywhere for a custom redirect, but can’t seem to find a plugin that does it for multisite.
Hi
..”/subsite/local-signup/” right now is a fixed and a hard coded link in the plugin. A few others, like yourself, have requested to have this customizable via hooks.
If a enough want this then it could be added and put on the list for future additions.
