I created a registration form with Toolset on my site. But there are two issues and one question I have:
1. When entering an E-Mail adress which already exists in WordPress there is no error, but the data are not submitted and the form keeps as it is without happening anything.
2. I added a mandatory checkbox for accepting the privacy rules. When clicking it, the same issue as with the existing mail adress. Nothing happens, the forms keeps filled without going on.
3. Is it possible to have new registered users not active till they checked from an admin?
You can test the form if you like: hidden link
Thanks for your help
Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.
1. Regarding the first issue, I suspect that you did not add the "Form messages" field. That field is the one that displays error messages. Check this screenshot hidden link
2. I would say that this happens because of the same issue above(1). Otherwise, I'll need to know how did you implement it, using a generic field? If yes, did you mark it as required?
3. This is not a built-in feature in WordPress. It needs a 3rd party plugin to be implemented, such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-locker/
But, I think that it may be fooled or worked around using Toolset. Create a new custom role with no permissions using the Toolset Access plugin. Configure the form to create users with this role. Because the role has no permissions the users cannot do anything on the site. Then an administrator can change the user's role to let him work on the site. Does it make sense?
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks Jamal,
for the first two points, the field you said is already there.
