I made the email field of the registration form visible to the admin only, checked off the "allow field to be populated dynamically" field, and set it to use a parameter called "email." I then added the following code to functions.php to to use a random email address for each new user that is completely hidden from them:</p> <pre><code>add_filter(&quot;gform_field_value_email&quot;, &quot;populate_email&quot;); function populate_email($value) { return substr(str_shuffle(&quot;0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ&quot;), 0, 8) . &#39;@domain.com&#39;; }</code></pre> <p>where "@domain.com" was the actual domain for the site I'm building. This gets the job done. If anyone has a better approach I'm open to it. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/allow-user-registration-without-email#post-109219 Thu, 27 Dec 2012 17:13:36 +0000 trestian 109219@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi, I'm building an anonymous site and would like for users to register without providing an email. I know that wp_create_user doesn't require an email address. How can I use the Gravity Forms User Registration Add On without requiring that the user provide an email address? I'm very comfortable modifying PHP code or creating a hook if that's what's required.</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
