Conditional Registration

    I'd like to do the following:

    1. Application Form: user "applies" to be a client of mine
    2. I review the application and, likely, approve and notify such by email confirmation
    3. Once approved, user must then complete more detailed forms; I'd like the additional forms to pre-populate certain areas based on user's profile, as set in the initial application form.

    Guidance?

  2. Currently the User Registration add-on does not support "approval" of new users. They are created immediately. This is in our next set feature set for this add-on. No ETA is available.

    While not a perfect solution, one idea would be to not register the user on the first form submission but only collect the necessary information you need to determine if you will approve them. If you approve them, you can send them an email to a password protected page that has your actual user registration form which might be able to be merged with one of the other forms they would be needing to fill out post-approval.

    The next form could be populated with the signed up users meta via the {user:***} merge tag. It accepts any property stored in user the meta (example: {user:first_name}).
