POSSIBLE? Multiple submissions from same user without login?

    Not sure if that title makes sense, but here's my situation. We have a form set up that automatically registers a user. We want that feature, and it's working well. We also want to let someone submit our form more than once -- it's a film festival application, so the same person might want to submit multiple films. The complication is that we ALSO don't want to require someone to log in just to submit a second or third or fourth film. Is this possible? The way it's set up now, username and email address is a required field in our form, but an error is generated if either has been used in a previous submission. Thanks!

  2. Why would you have them register but not ever log them in? If you register the user, you can log them in automatically if you want, then make the form accessible to logged in members only. That way, you will have all their user information since they are logged in already, and they would not need to provide that again.

    You could also use something like this to skip registration for logged in users, and just use the same form: http://gravitywiz.com/skip-user-registration-for-logged-in-users/
