This is a Free Add-On and Enabled on All Websites

Overview


Many websites have enabled features exclusively for their logged-in members. But what happens if a new user doesn’t have an account on the website?

Instead of directing new users to the registration page, they can now instantly create a free account directly from the login pop-up. This eliminates hurdles by making it easier and faster for new users to join the community!


Enabling the Add-On


Important: In order for this add-on to be enable the directory must have an SSL certificate installed!


To enable this the admin will need to go to Setting - General Settings. Scroll down until this option is visible to enable it or search for it:


Express Sign Up Membership Plan




The options given to the admin in the drop down will vary depending on how many FREE membership plans there are and which one the admin chooses for the members to express sign up to.


The "Start with Express Registration Tab Selected" setting will display the Signup form before the default Login form.


Once enabled, any unregistered users can sign up from the login form:



Additionally, the admin has access to an advanced setting to select where the redirect from the login pages go to.  


The admin will need to enter a comma-separated list of pages (/login,/about,etc) where if a member logs in from those pages, they will always be redirected to the page defined in their membership level setting. 


Otherwise, after logging in from any other pages, the current page will refresh after logging in so that the member remains on the current page. TIP: Leave empty for all logins to always redirect to the membership level redirect page. Use "/login" to ALWAYS redirect a login from the /login page, but after logging in from another page, it will refresh that page.
