Registration issues

Hi Laura – changed my mind. BuddyPress just adds overhead that I don’t want to deal with.

So, I add “register” to main menu from Kleo options and it looks like I start to get directed to the wp login php but then get redirected to my shopping page. ??

You should have admin access (and URL) per my earlier email. Thanks

I just created a ‘register’ page and inserted the bbp-register shortcode. Seems to work. A little clunky because the ‘register’ link shows even when you’re logged in but I can live with that. Haven’t yet checked to see what happens when a registered user actually checks out (hopefully it will still force the required fields.)

Well Laura, the login plugin just created other issues. The registration function was fine but the login function had some issues – among them, it wasn’t ‘smart’ enough to remember passwords.

My big question is why the conflict with the KLEO registration comes from PMPro? When I disable that plugin, everything’s fine. But of course I can’t do that. Could there be a second plugin that’s causing the PMPro plugin to cause that issue?

In any case, I’m not trying to use a free Membership to get rid of the registering altogether but that still presents challenges because I can’t seem to do it through Woo and if I do it through PMPro I’ve got a number of other links back into the register process.

What a mess.

I appreciate all your help.

I just came across this in a update email from PMPro:

“This code gist will give users a membership level during the traditional user registration process. It also disables the redirect to the Membership Levels page.

If you want to use the traditional WordPress user registration process or another plugin’s front end registration page (i.e. Theme My Login), this code gist allows you to disable PMPro’s automatic redirect and apply a default level to all user registrations.”

-Maybe there’s a hint here to what’s going on with my site since my “Membership Levels” page points to my Shop page, which is where I’m directed when I use the Kleo “register” menu item (without any registration in between). Maybe something in the register part of the login php is conflicting with PMPro.

I have Kleo set up in another demo site without PMPro (with the iThemes membership) and registration works fine.
On the other hand, I may have some setting I’ve completely forgotten about set incorrectly.

Laura – I’m happy to pay PMpro for their member support if that’s a better way to go. I just thought that because you include pmpro with Kleo that you might want to investigate this – but I don’t really care how it gets solved.

Attached is another bit of info I got from a backtrace plugin when I tried to register:

Whew! Here’s what I discovered: The issue did seem to be with PmPro’s redirect after registering. I added this code to my child function.php
add_filter(‘pmpro_login_redirect’, ‘__return_false’);

That solved the problem – no other login plugins needed.

By the way, the ‘Dynamic Menu for Logged In Users’ that Laura mentioned above is a nice addition but it doesn’t show the Kleo shopping cart on the logged in menu – which is sort of a deal breaker unless you folks can tell me how to include it. I think I’ll just throw this on a different thread.
