Hi all. The moment came when I needed a WordPress registration form, in earlier posts I described one code that contributes to the output in , time goes by WordPress is being updated more and more often, I had to look for Alternative option and i settled on the plugin Profile Builder. With this plugin, you can display all the information on the blog and thus isolate your admin panel from unwanted visits by registered users
In this article, we will analyze in more detail Profile Builder Plugin and login plugin Sidebar, as well as learn how to create a registration form on WordPress
First you need to download the WordPress Profile Builder plugin and activate it. Next, in the admin panel in the tab " Parameters" -> "General settings" check the box anyone can register.
In the Users tab, a new menu will appear " Profile Builder» , in which you can further edit the parameters. Believe me, there are a few of them.
Let's move on to creating our form, for this we create new page, call it for example "Registration" and insert the shortcode in the page itself . For those of you who don't know what a shortcode is, I'll explain it briefly - it's short code- which contains a specific function, on this moment we have a form of registrations.
- Add new page
- Name
- Paste the shortcode
- We save
You can create other pages in exactly the same way:
- — Page with login form
- — Page with a form for editing user data (the user must be authorized)
- — Page with password recovery form
All these shortcodes can be found on the tab "Admin panel" -\u003e "Users" -\u003e " Profile Builder”, the whole list is present here, I have listed the main ones.
The settings of the plugin are not great, all the work is done by short functions, let's move on to the main ones:
In the main settings, select a set of styles on the site, I still don’t understand for what purposes this tab is needed, since I have “Default” and “None” available
And confirmation by Email, after the user registers on the site, he needs to confirm the registration.
Here you can choose which users to enable / disable the admin panel, who does not know how to do this, I will describe now. You, as an administrator, have the right to assign roles to any user, each role has its own capabilities, for example, an author can write articles.
To add a role, open the "Users" tab, select the person you need from the list and set the rights for him, everything is easy and simple.
Standard profile fields, here you can simplify the registration form (the simpler the better) and after checking the required fields, the user will have to fill them out. You can also display profile information through these settings.
Display Profile Builder in Sidebar
You can display a link, or you can display a registration form, it is displayed again through the shortcode. Open the Sidebar file and install the code in the right place . After that, the user can enter a name, password and enter the site.
As you can see, there is nothing complicated here. I have prepared another alternative for you, it easier than a plugin Profile Builder, You just need to download and activate sidebar login plugin. And With the help of the widget, pull it to the place you need, Plus this plugin, you can add links to it that will be displayed by a registered user.
Initially, when you enter the site, it looks something like this:
At your discretion, you can place the necessary links that will be available after registration:
For example, you can create rules on the site and they will be displayed to all registered users. Or allow to publish news, but for this, we give the role of the author, I added a few links and I got the following:
It turned out not a bad shape, by the way, you can edit it and change styles, for this we go to the “Plugins” section -> find the Sidebar Login plugin “Change” to edit the style You need a file sidebar-login/style.css
And here is a list of links that can be pulled from the admin panel: But they are available for different roles:
- http://your-site/wp-admin/post-new.php - allow the user to add a post
- http://your-site/wp-admin/users.php - list of all users
- http://your-site/wp-admin/edit-comments.php?comment_status=all-comments
- http://your-site/wp-admin/profile.php - Your profile
You can add the rest yourself, turn on your imagination and use the possibilities of WordPress to the fullest, questions will appear? I will help you!!!
Greetings, colleagues. In this article, I will show you how to make a registration and authorization form for a WordPress blog with one simple yet powerful Profile Builder plugin. Using it, you will be able to allow users to register on your blog in the admin panel.
However, you probably have a question: why let visitors climb the blog? After all, it can be hacked! Well, firstly, these are free articles that are not lying on the road today and cost money, or at least time. Secondly, these users will not be able to walk in your admin panel as freely as you, but only write text in a draft, which you will later have to approve in order for it to be published on the blog.
In general, in my opinion, it’s a pretty cool idea, if you make, for example, something like mail.ru answers from a blog, then the site will fill up and spin up by itself. By the way, I have already seen something similar, only with a catalog of articles. It also had to register on the blog, go to the console and leave your article for verification. To be honest, I was then so surprised that someone allowed me to climb on my site that I doubted for a long time - is it generally a catalog of articles or a simple blog, the author of which decided to collect articles for free? By the way, I completely forgot to say that the Profile Builder plugin can be installed not only on a regular blog, but also on a forum, shop, message board made on .
Agree, on many forums, registration is just awful, asking you to fill in almost all the data, while the Profile Builder plugin can be configured so flexibly that it only requires you to enter three fields: name, email and password. This is very convenient, because no one wants to fill out a whole dossier about themselves, and even fill in a mega-complex captcha (a set of characters) or answer an unrealistically difficult question that even a person can hardly answer.
I saw a couple of such forums when I was putting together my own, where questions were asked that only those who were well versed in the topic of the forum could answer. In short, horror, such registrations are needed in the furnace. So, let's start installing the Profile Builder plugin.
How to make a registration and authorization form in WordPress?
1 ) Before proceeding with the installation of the Profile Builder plugin, there are a few things that need to be configured on the blog so that it can allow users to register. So, go to the "parameters" "general" and put a tick next to the "membership" item, and in the "role of the new user" tab, select "member". This is someone who will be able to write articles, but will not be able to publish them.
2 ) Ok, now you can install the plugin. You can download it.
3 ) Once you install it, all you have to do is the user registration page. To do this, go to the "pages" "add new", name it something like "Registration" and paste this shortcode here in the text tab and publish the page. If something is not clear, see the example below.
Ok, after that you will see this registration form on your blog.
By the way, it can be added to blog widgets. To do this, go to appearance» "widgets" and add a widget called text and in its content, paste the same code. In general, this shortcode is universal and can be inserted into any part of the blog. If you ever need it, then just go to "appearance" "editor" and select the file you need.
Okay, we have set up a registration form with you, but how to put authorization? There are other shortcodes for this, here is a list of them:
- registration form.
– a form for editing a profile (for authorized users).
– password recovery form.
Just copy the code you need and paste it in the place on the site where you want to see the form you need.
Configuring the Profile Builder plugin.
4 ) As you probably already noticed, our form has just a sea of unnecessary fields, let's clean them up so as not to frighten our users once again. So, for that go to "users" "Profile Builder" "standard profile fields". Here you will see three columns: field name, status, required field.
The "status" column indicates the fields that will be displayed (shown) for filling. I recommend that you put them all in the "hide" status.
The "mandatory field" column contains mandatory fields, without which the user will not be registered.
In the "field name" column, I think everything is clear.
5 ) Ok, and finally go to " General settings". Here you can, at your discretion, enable or disable registration confirmation by user's mail, as well as configure the method of authorization by username or nickname. By the way, I completely forgot to mention one more plugin - which also has an authorization function. I wanted to write about him at the very beginning, but, alas, I forgot.

Hi all!. There are very few of them, and in Russian you can’t find them at all. The best one I've tried is the Profile Builder plugin. It is simple and convenient, but it will take some time to Russify the registration form.
Let's start, as expected, by installing the plugin in wordpress - download the Profile Builder , unpack the archive and upload the folder with the plugin files to the server in the /wp-content/plugins directory using, for example, FileZilla. Immediately after activation, you will be transferred to the settings, which are located in the "Users" - "Profile Builder" section.
If you decide to use this plugin, then do not forget to allow users to register in WordPress: in the "Options" - "General" section, check the box next to "Anyone can register" and select "New User Role" - "Subscriber" or "Member" (can write articles and save them as drafts for admin review).
All the main plugin settings are concentrated in the Default Profile Fields item and are reduced to a list of fields that will be displayed in the registration form.
- Input Field Name - the name of the field.
- Visibility - add / remove to the registration form.
- Required - required fields.
Name (name):
- username - username. Required field that cannot be hidden.
- First Name and Last Name - the user's first and last name.
- Nickname - nickname.
- Display name publicly as... - which of the names will be displayed on the blog.
Contact Info (contacts):
- E-mail - address Email. Always required field.
- website - site.
- AIM, Yahoo IM and Jabber / Google Talk- Internet instant messaging services.
About Yourself (about yourself):
- Biographical Info - a field for the user to enter information about himself.
- new password - New Password. Another required field that cannot be hidden.
After setting up the fields, you need to display the result of the Profile Builder registration plugin on the blog. This is done using the following shortcodes:
4. Password recovery:
| [wppb-recover-password] |
Just take desired code and insert either into the text of the pre-created and allotted for the registration / authorization form, or into the standard “Text”.
Unfortunately, all fields on English language, so you have to Russify them manually. To do this, go to the "Plugins" - "Editor" section and in the right upper corner select Profile Builder.
- — given file is responsible for the authorization form, which is displayed using code No. 1.
- profile-builder/front-end/wppb.login.php- registration form (code No. 2).
- profile-builder/front-end/wppb.edit.profile.php— profile editing (shortcode №3).
- profile-builder/front-end/wppb.recover.password.php— a form for changing the password, obtained using shortcode No. 4.
Find English words and replace them with Russian equivalents.
That's all, thanks for your attention. All the best to you!
