Hi
OK, Thanks for your reply. I too wish a Happy New Year to all.
BillyBellyHi,
I am not sure if I understand correctly… As an admin, I am able to add custom fields to the group, by following these instructions… https://profilegrid.co/extensions/custom-group-fields/ However… this solution does not allow me to choose the field type and also even when I add the custom fields here, they do not show in the ‘set up new group’ form on the FE…
What I need to do is: add different types of fields to the group, in order to add more details to it. For example: calendar to specify the times some activity group may be available, or address field – to show where the groups meets, and so on. In effect, I am wondering if there is a way to enable field manager for groups too?
If I go to the group (in the admin dashboard) and click on ‘fields’ I do get the fields manager, and I can use it to add fields. However, those fields are for the user profile of the members of the group, and not for the group itself. Is there a way to add these kinds of fields to the group too? And then make those fields appear in the FE form for setting up ne groups? I don’t want to FE user to add fields, but I want them to fill in the fields that I have added in the admin dashboard…
The purpose of these custom fields for the group would be to define the functionality fo the group a bit better for the user, to illustrate what the group is for in more details, where it meets, when it meets, what it sells (if anything) and so on.
Thanks.
Wishing everybody a Happy New Year
BillyBellyHi. Maybe my question was not clear, so I will try again.
1) Required Webiste field. I understand that it should be left blank if I don’t want it to be required. But where is it? I have not seen it in general settings, or user profiles page, or group manager… what am I missing?
2) “2) Customer Role : To list the customer role, please install woocommerce. If any third party plugin adds a new role to the WP site, it automatically lists in our user role dropdown.”. Here again, probably my question was not clear enough. I already have the woocommerce installed. If I create a user from the back end, of course I can select the customer role. From the front end, though, via your Registration page [PM_Registration id=”1″], the fields offered on it are: User Name, First Name, Last Name, email, Password, confirm Password, Website, Biographical info. All fields are required. The possibility is not offered to a new user to select a role form themselves, or to select a group that they wish to join. Or to upload a photo via that page. My question is: how can I modify this page to add the fields I want and delete the fields I don’t want on the FRONT END? What steps do I need to perform?
3.) You say “3) User Profile Image field : We surely have a user profile field to add profile image directly from the form i.e ‘Profile Image’ field.”. But … I don’t know if I can send you a screenshot to see what the form actually displays… But I have listen all the field names that I can see on the FRONT END Registration page. The short code that displays this page is [PM_Registration id=”1″] – to make sure we talk about the same page.
4) “Field Manager on registration page : While adding a new field, make sure you enable the option ‘Show in Sign-Up form’ under each field setting. This will show that specific field in the registration page as well.” I would guess you mean the field manager for each group – when I add a field to a group. I can see the setting “show in sign up”, and when I select that an extra field shows on Signup page to which I get by clicking on Sign Up link on this page [PM_Groups]… The url for this “signup page” is “www.example.com/pm_registration/?gid=2… So I see where the confusion came from… You have two different pages called registration page… I am talking about this one: [PM_Registration id=”1″]…If I follow the logic that you described in step 4, then on the field manager I should have an option of selecting fields to appear not only on sign up page but also on Registration page [PM_Registration id=”1″]… But I don’t.
Anyway.. once again, all my question were about the FRONT END fields that appear on [PM_Registration id=”1”]
Thank you.
