    My workflow for signing users up is to have them:

    1. Fill out a form on the homepage which requests their email address and asks them to subscribe to the newsletter (this way, if someone doesn’t follow through with the sale they can still be subscribed for future marketing)

    2. After filling out the homepage form, they are dropped into the Pricing page where they can learn about then select a membership level

    3. Checkout page is next and here’s the issue. Currently PMPro requires the user to register or login to complete the sale. I want the user to register for the site, as they checkout.

    4. Upon checking out, they will receive activation emails based on their level.

    5. After activating account, the user can login and gain access to their content.

    I do not want to fragment the sales process and force the user to register with the site, activate their account, then return to the checkout page.

    Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

    Jesse, you might be confusing PMPro with another plugin. PMPro works this way by default. There are username/password/email fields on the checkout page and user is registered/created as they checkout (unless they are already logged in).

    Some clarifications Re your specific #s.

    1. This isn’t part of PMPro, but is possible using the shortcodes in the PMPro Register Helper plugin: https://www.paidmembershipspro.com/add-ons/plugins-on-github/pmpro-register-helper-add-checkout-and-profile-fields/ Have users sign up for a free account and link the free account to your newsletter app through an addon.

    2. You’d have to customize the workflow yourself through code.

    3. Again, you can register from the checkout page with PMPro with the default setup. If they registered already some other way and are logged in, they won’t have to register again.

    4. You can customize the email through the membership confirmation message or through the docs on our site.

    5. PMPro will log the user in right away after checkout and give them their level. (Exception is with PayPal Standard.)

    Keep trying. If you need more help, you can sign up for support on our member forum.

    @strangerstudios thank you for the awesome support. It appears the theme I’m using is utilizing this if statement:

    if ( !$skip_account_fields && !$pmpro_review ) {

    /*request user login

    }

    I just need to figure out if I can set those variables correctly or if I have to mod the code in the theme
