Looking for a Student Registration Plugin

  • Hello folks,

    I have a specific question about WordPress plugins. I’m looking for a plugin that allows custom fields where I can add student data. Allow only specific fields to show at front end for each student. Each student will have a unique Registration ID (not talking about the account registration but talking about a unique school registration ID that will be created manually). On the front end students page, there will be just a search bar. When anyone enters that unique ID, they get to see the student information.

    Is there any such plugin available? Would appreciate recommendations. Looking through free and paid plugins but can’t find any for the purpose. I think I’m unable to figure out what keywords to use to search the correct plugin.

    Would appreciate any help.

    Thanks and regards,
    Happy Thanksgiving all.

    . When anyone enters that unique ID, they get to see the student information.

    That seems highly insecure and may be illegal, depending on your location.

    This seems to me to be something best done with custom coding.

    Hi Steve,

    Thanks for the reply.

    Sorry, English is not my first language and sometimes I find it hard to explain properly what I need.

    The plugin would do two things ..

    1. It will take all the data like name, age, gender, date of birth, achievements, phone, address, email ID, Parents’ name, parents’ occupation, etc. This is for my own records which I will be punching from the joining form that students already filled.

    2. The plugin would allow only “certain” information viewable at the front end like Name, age and achievements. None of the “private information” will be shown at the front end.

    My purpose is to have a system where a student (or anyone else) can enter the Unique ID and pull information. The information will then show the Name, Age and Achievements of the student. Also, it will show that the student is enrolled with my school (I run a Martial Arts school). I wish to do all of this for 2 reasons. First reason is to show that a student is enrolled with us. The second reason is to reward a student for their achievements.

    I have specifically asked each and every of my 70+ students and they (and their parents) agreed to it and don’t find anything objectionable. They are of course equally concerned about the other information which is deemed private. I’m concerned about that too and will make sure none of that shows up at the front end or is accessible to anyone else but me.

    Is this still illegal? I hope not ..

    Have you seen any nursing government organizations? It’s the same system on those organizations. If Employers wish to check the registration information of a nurse professional, they can simply punch in their registration ID and see if a nurse is registered with the board/govt body or not.

    If it is legal, then that’s what I wish to do. Would you know of any plugins that can do the job?

    Thanks and regards.
