Custom Registration Plugin

readme.md

Changelog

1.1

• Fixed: errors if $fields array is empty
• Fixed: extra 'WP_Errors' string artifact from previous use of 'is_a' function

Original Changes

• Took out styling - this is unnecessary to the tutorial and poor separation. Let the theme handle styling
• Removed globals - in general, using globals is a bad practice, because it forces reliance and causes conflicts
• Decoupled everything - every function now stands on its own, which makes the code more maintainable, extensible, debuggable, modular, etc.
• Added cr_ prefix to functions (as suggested by Kitt Ross) - this will help avoid conflict with other plugins
• Moved error display to form display function - this is generally whre you want it, it also separates validation and display
• Fields now always use the same names as wp_insert_user uses - this saves a step
• Errors are only checked once
• Removed registration function - was unnecessary for something that basically just wraps another function
• Removed echoing of password back to form - passwords should not be brought back as other data is
• Field data is now cleared on success

Hi Tristan,

Thank you so much for this plugin! Really working well. I was wondering how you would add a page redirect on a successful registration instead of just echoing out a message. I've tried adding a redirect and filter to registration_redirect, but it isn't working. Any help would be really appreciated!

Heya!

This is awesome work, thank you!

It'd be great if this can be extended to support a file upload field as well.

I'm trying to figure out a way to let a user upload a file during registration.

Appreciate any help!

Thanks

@zachhall For redirection, this should help...

I did try to tinker a little bit, but while the user is getting registered, the file field is not getting created or file isn't stored. Here's my tinkered code.

Hi Tristan,

This is an awesome plugin and working well!
It'd be great if this can be extended to autologin after registration.
Appreciate any help!

Best regards,
