Automatic Member placement in a Group from Registration point

    Happy New Year to You Sir,

    My Church has branches in:

    — Ikeja.
    — Dolphin Estate.
    — Agor Palace Way.
    — Ajao Mafoluku Airport Road.
    — Victoria Island.
    — Lekki.
    — Ibeju Lekki.
    — Maryland.
    — Epe
    — Badagry.

    And these branches will surely grow and increase.

    Now, I am likely going to create these branches as separate Groups, but I want to have only One default Registration Form on my website.

    Moving on from there, I want to be able to naturally add these branches / locations / Groups to the Registration Form as checkboxes or Radio buttons that can be selected at Registration, as you can see it possible on my BuddyPress website Registration Form here– https://prnt.sc/l3uwVtGvYVOr
    .
    This field addition to the Registration Form should allow Single and Multiple selection.

    If a User then selects any branch at Registration, they should automatically belong to that Group, when they submit the Registration Form.

    This is what I call “Automatic Member Placement“– and it is initiated by the user at the stage of Registration.

    How do I set this up in ProfileGrid?

    Regards.

    Hello @gbordormor22,

    Currently, plugin does not allow the selection of group on registration form. You may check the extension “WooCommerce Product Integration” allows to integrate WooCommerce products with ProfileGrid Groups. You can assign groups to your users based on the type of products they buy . For more information on this, please visit the link: https://profilegrid.co/assign-groups-based-woocommerce-purchase-history/

    I hope this helps, let us know if you have any other questions.

    Before installing ProfileGrid, I spent One(1) whole week reading through your Support requests on www.ads-software.com, and also through your Blog and Tutorials on your official website, and I saw someone ask for this Automatic Member Placement.

    The Year was September 2019, and you replied that this feature is not available, but you’ve added it to your “To Do” List.

    Unfortunately, I couldn’t find that post again among your Blog Posts(although I’m still searching for it).

    From September 2019 till now, we will be talking roughly of 4 Years.

    How come you’ve not implemented this feature after 4 Years, since it’s been last requested?

    In BuddyPress, there is something called “Member Type“. It is a kind of Usermeta that can be used to classify Users.

    We can ask it to be added to registration Form as you can see here– https://prnt.sc/j5f7EoPVu7dV

    You can see that it features as Sign Up Fields here– https://prnt.sc/DNHQXDba6MKX

    Then on the main Registration Page, it is there– https://prnt.sc/l3uwVtGvYVOr

    And when users choose anyone of these at Registration, they get added to that user Directory/ Group automatically.

    Now, this is something I see as a simple thing to do.

    It is as simple as having an option in each Group’s Setting that says “Add Group to Registration Form“.

    And the Registration Form can then List out all Groups (as checkbox or radio button)added to it at Registration stage.

    If user chooses anyone of these at Registration, the User is automatically added to the chosen Group from Registration stage.

    Why has it taken 4 Years, and ProfileGrid hasn’t yet implemented it?

    Please, treat this as a Priority, so that it will be implemented soon.

    Regards.
