How to Customize Which Fields Appear on the Registration and Edit Profile Page

WP eMember allows you to customize the fields that appear on the registration and edit profile page. You can choose to not display some of the fields depending on your site’s need.

In order to customize which fields appear on the form please go to the “Pages Settings” tab from the eMember settings menu. There are two sections on this page that allows you to turn on/off certain fields from the registration and edit profile page.

Adding More Custom Registration Fields

If the default fields given by eMember is not enough then you can add more custom fields to the registration and edit profile form to collect data required for your business. Simply go to the “Custom Field Settings” tab and configure the extra fields that you want to add. After you hit the “update options” button the extra fields will show up in the “Registration” and “Edit Profile” form on your site.

Remember, the configured fields will show up on your registration and edit profile page directly… you don’t need to configure these fields from the “Pages/Forms Settings” section.

Hi there,

Is it possible to add additional fields to the registration form (i.e. suite number, rent/own, etc.)?

@Rhain, we are adding a feature which will allow the admin to add custom fields to the registration form.

The new version of eMember will go live in a few days which will have this option.

Hi,

Came across your site through a google ad and finally this is one plugin that makes me excited because for once it doesn’t use the default WP register/login page.

That being said, I need my forms to be highly customized.. I see that your last comment mentioned this would be taken care of.

Any update on when this feature is available?

Thanks,

Soon to be a customer of this wonderful plugin
