Back End Users

Hi Alison,

1. If you enable the “Admin Approval of Users” option, it will indeed add a new column to the table in the “Users” that shows if someone is approved.

2. There are a couple things to check to make sure it’s set up correctly to send the emails. The first is “Send Sign Up Emails” needs to be set to “Yes” in the “Basic” area of the “Options” tab. You will then also need to make sure that what you have input for the “Email Field Name” in the “Emails” tab matches exactly what the name of your email field is, as it shows in the “Fields” tab.

3. If it isn’t aligned properly, then it’s likely a conflict with theme styling/CSS. We’ve included a “Custom CSS” box in the “Basic” area of the “Options” tab, in which you can add custom styling to any element used in our plugin. If you’d like to provide a link to the page with your form on it, we could take a look and maybe suggest some CSS that would help with the alignment.

Thanks very much for your prompt reply.

1. Got this fixed thank you.

2. I don’t understand exactly what you mean by ‘You will then also need to make sure that what you have input for the “Email Field Name” in the “Emails” tab matches exactly what the name of your email field is, as it shows in the “Fields” tab.

Am I adding an email address or something else, confused, sorry.

3. Thanks. Currently the form doesn’t look great, see here (https://salutest.cloudaccess.host/investor-log-in/)

If we could look more like this (https://salutest.cloudaccess.host/login/?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fsalutest.cloudaccess.host%2Finvestment-team%2F)that would be fantastic.

Also needs to be responsive and work nicely accross all devices such as a mobile phone, iapd etc.

Thank you very much ??

One additional question.

4. Once the person logs in, can they automatically be taken to redirected to another page to see the restricted text, or can it appear on that specific page they log in?

Hi Alison,

2. If you go to the “Emails” tab in the plugin admin, you’ll see there’s a field called “Email Field Name”. In here you have to type the name of your email field, exactly as it appears in the “Fields” tab.

3. I just had a look at your form and it appears to be aligned correctly. The only thing I can see is that the input boxes are not styled exactly the same. This is because your theme isn’t applying the same styling to password type inputs as it is to text type inputs. You can try adding the exact same styling that your theme uses for the text inputs to the password inputs with the following CSS:

input[type=password] {
padding: 5px;
width: 200px;
margin: 5px 0 0;
border: 2px solid rgba(0,0,0,.05);
background: #fff;
border-radius: 0;
-webkit-appearance: none;
font-size: 100%;
}

4. This is certainly possible. Just use the redirect_page attribute to redirect someone after login. For example: [login redirect_page=”https://google.com”%5D.

1. I still don’t understand your point 1. ‘exactly as it appears in the “Fields” tab.’. There is a field tab which shows ‘first name’ etc, is that what you mean? I dont understand! Do I add the first name of a user? Please can you explain it very very very clearly I again I have totally no idea whatsoever what you mean. Can you do it step by step? Thanks ??

2. Thanks for the styling. Does this work accords all devices? How can you change the button?

3. Referring to point 3:

a) Thanks, where do put: [login redirect_page=”https://google.com”]. What page and where, under the login form, or above?
I tried adding the link [login redirect_page=”https://google.com”] so it looks liek this:
[login-logout-toggle]
[login redirect_page=”https://salucapitalnew.cloudaccess.host/investor/”]

but it says ‘page not found’ when i log in, so its refreshing to a page but not working?

b) Does the above = go on the login page to replace [login] or somewhere else?

4. Whats the shortcode for refreshing the page i’m on?

5. Can I add Capatcha to my log in forms? There is option for a regiester, but not log in as far as I can see as I have selected ‘yes’ to capatcha but not showing?

6. When a user logs in, can the menu show a ‘logout’ in the menu? I only want it to appear when users are logged in?

Thank you for your patience ??

Any news on the above as its really important?

1. In the “Fields” tab you’ll find the name of your email field. Copy this. This is what you need to put in the “Email Field Name” box in the “Emails” tab.

2. The CSS we provided should be fine for all devices. What do you mean change the button? The button is styled by your theme.

3. You place the shortcode on a page. You don’t need both the [login-logout-toggle] and [login] shortcodes on the same page. Remove the [login-logout-toggle] shortcode. If the redirect isn’t working, then it’s probably because the quotes are off. WordPress is very finicky about the quotes used. They have to be regular plain text quotes. For example:

[login redirect_page='https://google.com']

or

[login redirect_page="https://google.com"]

4. I don’t know what you mean by this. If you mean you want to log in, but not redirect to a different page, just don’t use any attribute. Simply use the [login] shortcode.

5. The captcha is indeed only applicable to the register form, not the login form. There’s no option to include one on the login form.

6. This would involve adding some custom code to your theme. We’ve created a few public functions to make this possible, but you would need to do some coding. We have a tutorial video that explains how to use our public functions, which you can watch here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKiJAjq7PhQ.
