A question that comes up from time to time is how to implement moderated registration on an existing site with current users.  There is no difference between an “existing” user and a “new” user – they are all simply “users,” so there isn’t a way for the plugin to know who you want to activate and who you don’t.

One particular problem, though, is that when you activate a user it will send the user a notification that they have been activated and if current settings are to send the user their initial password, their password will be set upon activation (thus changing an existing user’s password if you activate them).

Allow users to choose membership products at registration

· ·

NOTE: This post is a tutorial for a process that is no longer necessary since the inclusion of the “membership” field type in WP-Members 3.2.6. If you’re using a recent version of WP-Members, then you already have a simple way of adding a membership selection to the WP-Members registration form by creating a custom field and selecting “membership” as the field type.

This process is for people who need to assign a membership when the user registers through the WP-Members registration form.  Since this is applied at registration, it is not recommended for users who are selling memberships, unless you are using moderated registration to approve the registration. Similarly, this is not recommended for installs integrating the selling of memberships through WooCommerce.

This is a working example of using WP-Members Membership Products. In this tutorial, we’ll add a custom field to display a multiple checkbox group in the registration form with a checkbox for each membership product.  The user can select one or several at registration.
