Question about the User-Registration add-on

    Can we manage the following with a combination of Gravity Forms and the new User Registration Add-On?

    The town wants a membership log-in and tracking system.

    This is a municipally administered program. We simply want to collect certain member data, and then track their progress through our program. Members will be instructed and supported online (only via email and phone and tooltips on hidden pages), and will be completing much of their tasks offline.

    They will log back onto the site on various days, answer some questions and check a box saying they have completed a certain step, and then that information will go into our database and also generate an email notification to the site owners. There will also be a voting system that assigns points as part of our program, and we will need users to be logged in, in order to participate in the voting.

    The end result for the town would be that we can print a spreadsheet from the site showing a member's data, plus the steps they have completed and the date completed.

  2. Right out of the box, no... but Gravity Forms is a great base to start from. Gravity Forms + the User Registration plugin will allow you to let users sign up easily and populate user meta with various data submitted through the form. Gravity Forms will also let you easily create different forms (our use conditional logic on the same form) for the different steps of the program you are creating.

    The biggest piece that is missing right now is the ability to update a user with a Gravity Form. I believe we are planning to add this in a future version of the User Registration add-on, but no final decisions have been made.

    + 1 for updating a user with the user registration add on, this would allow users who "registered" on the frontend to "update" on the frontend as well.
