Hi,

I'm building a user registration form with Fluent Forms. In that form, I can set which user role I want the new user to get (in this case, author).

The problem is, when the Toolset access plugin is active, the user gets the subscriber role, instead of the author role I've set in the form. When I deactivate the Toolset access plugin, it works as it should.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

There is no official integration between Toolset and fluentforms.

But I can see fluentforms offers the hook "fluentform_user_registration_completed" that you should use to set your desired role when you submit the form.

I suggest you should check with fluentforms plugin support about how you can set your desired role when you submit the form using the above hook.
