Buddyboss User Registration Conflict

  1. Hi guys. FIrst off, LOVE gravity forms. But I am a bit challenged with implementation - let me say I am not an experienced php guy. So, now that you know I am "challenged" when it comes to this kind of stuff, here's what I'm trying to do. I can't seem to get the registration form to post to my site. I'm using "Buddyboss" as a theme and it looks like the "registration.php" for buddyboss is preventing my gravity form from turning up.

    So I've posted it to another page. (http://sunasocial.com/test-for-form/) so you can see the form. Buddyboss' registration.php is posted here (http://pastie.org/5508344) so you can see it. Is there any way for me to retain the functionality within buddyboss and JUST get the form to replace the form that registration.php generates?

  2. Are you saying you want to retain this page:
    http://sunasocial.com/register/

    But also use the form on this page?
    http://sunasocial.com/test-for-form/

    The way the User Registration Add-on works is that it will let you create a Gravity Form which will register users. You can choose to replace your default registration page with this page if you like. If you want all the functionality that is present on this page http://sunasocial.com/register/ you will need to add all those fields to your registration form, and then use the "Enable Custom Registration Page" to replace your register page with a page containing your Gravity Form. That setting can be found under Settings > User Registration (this page on your website wp-admin/admin.php?page=gf_settings&addon=User+Registration).

  3. Thanks. Yes, I just want to use the new form I've created in the existing registration page (in order to keep the three stage registration process, the graphics e.t.c). I couldn't find "Enable Custom Registration" manually so had to post your link. Which worked, and I clicked on enable custom registration. But it still looks the same. My conditional fields, drop down menus e.t.c. are not there. It's the stock registration page. Looks no different really. Am I doing something wrong or is the existing registration page overriding everything I am doing gravity form wise?

  4. If you have checked "Enable Custom Registration Page" and selected from the drop down the page where this Gravity Form is embedded, I don't think you're doing anything wrong. It's possible your Buddyboss theme is overriding what Gravity Forms is trying to do.

  5. Yes, I think that is the case. Thanks for helping, I've gone to Buddyboss to see if they can help by recommending whether I should modify the existing registration.php or clear the entire theme's registration folder and rely 100% on Gravity Forms.

  6. OK, let us know what you find out.

  7. Apparently they are unable to help me, and have suggested that I get gravity forms support to assist. I'm going to try modifying registration.php and see if I can manually port over the form fields.

  8. We don't recommend modifying the plugin files, but if you come upon a solution, please let us know.

  9. OK, figured most of it out. I had to change the registration slug using a language edit file, which then neatly sidestepped the buddyboss registration stuff. Have a whole new problem though, now that the form shows up and works at "signup" (www.sunasocial.com) once I click on submit it give me this error:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined method BP_XProfile_Field::bp_xprofile_field() in /home/content/68/5643968/html/SUNASOCIAL/wp-content/plugins/gravityformsuserregistration/userregistration.php on line 1427

    Looks like a conflict, but I don't know where to begin looking. Any ideas?

  10. These XProfile issues were fixed in the beta version of the User Registration add-on. Are you using the 1.4 version or the 1.5beta version?

  11. That fixed it! Great, thanks Chris. Now I just need to figure out the best way to get the meta data from the drop downs properly channeled into my user fields.
