Member Page – how to edit form

Hi,

1. The registration form is defined at:

file    : edd-functions.php
function : vp_edd_fd_get_register_fields

And the login form is taken from EDD original login form, so you gonna need to dig on EDD itself.

But I don’t recommend editing the core of plugins, would you like to share with me how do you wish to edit the form?

2. Hmm, do you mean the download single page? or are you using the button via shortcode? for the former case, then you should be able to edit the content under EDD Downloads Menu -> All Downloads -> Edit the specific download, and for the later case, edit it in the page where you put your shortcode.

Good Luck !

Thanks for that!!

Hi Vafpress,

Yes (sorry for delayed response).

First thanks I followed your instructions and edited the number 2. issue.

As for the member form and how i would like to edit it. I think it is way to big and by the time the customer gets to the putting in their name and email – it’s way down the bottom of the page. I’d like to remove everything except for the bottom part where they put in a name and email address. Is this possible?

p.s everytime I try now to view the member page, it says i am already logged in…. even in incognito browsers… so it’s hard for me to remember what the member page looks like to relate specific edit goals. ??

thanks for your help

Hi Lorna,

Sorry to say that customizing the fields is currently not possible, we may provide that capability in the future, but can’t promise to do it in the near time though ??

And about your ‘already logged in’ issue, do you have a URL for me to check?

Hi here is the url

https://feedingkids.tv/member/

thanks

??

Hi, I went to the url you given, login and register form is shown correctly, are you sure you have been completely logged out? or maybe try clearing the browser cookies?

Hello,

How do I log out? I don’t ever remember logging in… I login to my wordpress site but thats it…

?

thanks

Hi,

Ohh, yeah that’s it, you’re logged in to the WordPress site, then the membership form won’t be shown, since EDD is using the native users/membership mechanism of WordPress.

What should I do in order to see the membership form?

thanks

Hi,

You just simply need to log out from your WordPress site, and access the member page ??

Thanks I did it.

I love your plugin but if I put myself in the position of one of my customers points of view, and if I was new to the site, It’s really hard to follow and understand that I need to register…

I know you mentioned it was not possible to change the elements, but is it possible to change their positioning? So put the register up the top so they know to do it. Otherwise they will drop off in confusion. The register button is way down the bottom.

I really wish there was headings that said – New User Registration (or something like that) \.

What do you think?

Thanks a lot for the plugin by the way

Lorna

Hi Lorna,

Sorry for the late response, you do have a good point, so what’s needed are:

1. A way to customize the positioning of the login and register form, or even better to customize their fields, so admin can choose what fields to show.

2. Put a heading for registration form.

Thanks for the suggestion, we will try to find our self the time to do this, and we will keep you updated ??

Hi guys,
It’s a minor tweak, but this code might help you @lornalily

// output our custom field HTML
function before_member_msg(){
    echo('<h3>Please Login or Register, for access to our downloads</h3>');
}
function before_register_fields_msg(){
    echo('<legend>Register</legend>');
}
add_action('vp_edd_fd_before_member','before_member_msg');
add_action('edd_register_account_fields_before','before_register_fields_msg');

This adds some additional headings/instructions to your ‘members’ page.
Add it anywhere (your theme’s functions.php for instance), and it might help a little bit?

Example of where the text is displayed:
https://liberatedcloud.com/member/

Link is now taken down (using a different solution).
Code still works though.
