    I have copied over register.php to the buddypress/members under the kleo-child theme but as soon as i even change one word in some text the registration page goes blank.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Users get the error message ‘Usernames can only contain lowercase letters (a-z) and number’ when trying to register because it auto capitalises the first letter using mobile. Doesn’t seem I can force lowercase or make usernames uppercase? Therefore I would like to provide notices that say that users must make their username lowercase.

    Where it says ‘Username(Required)’ I would like it to say ‘Username(Must be lowercase)(Required)’.

    I would also like the ‘complete sign up’ button to be blue colour #387ef5

    Thanks

    Hello, at Users > Profile fields you should be able to add a description to the username field 🙂 Use that to add the required lowercase text
    For the button, add this to style.css of child theme 🙂

    COPY CODE
    
    input#signup_submit {
        background: #387ef5 !important;
        color: white !important;
    }

    Hi, Thanks for the code it worked great.

    Unfortunately i don’t have the option to change the username field, only the Name field?

    Hello, i see, maybe if you use Loco Translate plugin with buddypress or the theme you could add that to the username field

    Here is a guide 🙂

    Theme strings and plugins strings can easily be changed by using Loco Translate plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/loco-translate/
    <h3>A small introduction on how translations work</h3>
    Translatable strings can come from the theme or from the installed plugins. You need to translate the theme or the plugin depending on what section of the site your string is found.

    For example if your string is on your BuddyPress profile then most probably you will need to translate BuddyPress plugin. If you are on the Forums section of your site then bbPress plugin should be the one that needs to be translated. Another example is the rtMedia plugin that adds the Media links to BuddyPress and if you want to translate it then this plugin will contain the string.
    <h3>Follow these steps to get you started:</h3>

    • Install Loco Translate plugin
    • Go to the plugin dashboard: WP Admin – Tools – Manage translations
    • Find the theme or plugin in the list.
    • If the language isn’t already in the list then click Add new language, choose your language and if you are asked where you want to save the language files choose global language directory ( wp-content/languages/ ).
    • Press SYNC button to synchronise your translation with the provided .pot file
    • Search for the string you want to translate and add your translated string.
    • Press Save when you finished your translation.

    Note: You will have to set the language for your blog from WP-admin – Settings – General – Site Language – Choose your language

    Cheers

    Hi, thanks for this but I’ve managed to find a plugin called WP Username Restriction Override that allows capital letters etc during registration (and works!).

    Someone also using a multisite set up may also find this useful.
