Looking for WooCommerce Registration Forms that go to specific user setting

  • Hi. I have a site that has woocommerce installed. I provide some content on the website, but also sell through our website. I am looking to have the normal retail price, then a set of prices for group B when they log in and another set of prices for group C when they log in. I have all of that and working. The problem I have is I want the person to be able to create an account for group B (as an example) from page “register group B” and then not have to get the admin to grant access. In other words, I want to be able to email someone and tell them to go to the link and they can create an account and get discounted pricing not available to everyone else.

    The problem I am having is creating the account registration pages that also are specific to the type of user/account and get approved at that time. I just bought a plugin that doesn’t look like it will work and also have spent over a day on this now.

    Thanks in advance.

    additionally, I keep getting this message: Only administrators can add new users. when trying to use other registration forms and the block is checked to allow new users.

    Signing up as a “subscriber” role user is much different than creating a user in the backend who may have a variety of roles. It gets even more complicated in WooCommerce, as it has its own registration forms.

    For generic WP, you need “create_users” and “edit_users” capabilities added to your user. There are roles and capabilities plugins that would allow an admin to assign additional capabilities to users. Once assigned, those with the added capabilities can handle things without having to go through the admin again.

    How that may or may not influence WooCommerce aspects, I couldn’t tell you. Regardless, you need those capabilities to get anywhere, but it may not be enough by itself.

    Sounds like you’re looking for a membership plugin like Ultimate Member… you could also use a forms plugin that offers user registration functionality which will hook into WP’s user system such as Gravity Forms paired with their user registration add-on to assign a different role.

    Hope this helps get you on the right track. Once you find a solution please tag the thread resolved.
