Login with password

[Tyler]

Some of our workers have tested registering for the site but don’t receive the emails, so is there a way to register and include the password field so that they don’t have to receive an email in order to login?

Hi Tyler,

Thanks for reaching out to us! I’ll help you here…

Our plugin uses the actual WordPress auth workflow to create accounts or to login/logout users. There’s not much you can do from the plugin side it self to change this. But there are several plugins that let you tune WordPress register form and options.

In the case that you are not receiving the emails, you should check the server mail logs (or contact them) and see if the emails are coming out from the server.

Please let me know if I can help further,
Best,
Nico

Ok I found a plugin that the user can register from, is there a way I can edit the “Register” link to go to another page instead of the wp-login page?

I guess if this is going to be the default register form, you can add a 301 redirection to the new form URL.

Community events uses the default WordPress function wp_register to show the register link, you can filter the ouput to change the URL. Add this snippet in your functions.php file to do so:


/**
* Modify register URL
*/

function custom_register_url ( $url ) {
return site_url('register');
}

add_filter( 'register_url', 'custom_register_url' );


Be sure to change the URL for the one you created.

Best,
Nico
