First, thanks for your plugin, it's realy usefull and with the custom fields you solve my needs big time!

The only problem I have is related to the layout of those custom fields. I have alot of informations I need to gather and some of that informations benefits from being grouped together. I have no problem building an html page with the proper layout and I would like to use it instead of the autogenerated one provided with s2Members.

What options do I have?

Thanks for your precious help!

Anybody has an idea where I could start? What page should I hack to use my custom html code?

Please?

Anyone?

Hi, Alain. I'm new to s2member, but have you watched the videos? I found them to be VERY useful, though I don't recall this being address. Then again, it wasn't my issue.

Depending on whether or not you're running BuddyPress and Multisite, I think you need to edit wp-login.php, wp-signup.php, or register.php. This is from General Options:

Custom Registration Fields ( optional, for further customization )

Some fields are already built-in by default. The defaults are: *Username*, *Email*, *First Name*, *Last Name*.

Custom Fields will appear in your Standard Registration Form:
( http://studentsoftraders.com/wp-login.p ... n=register )

A Multisite Blog Farm uses this Form instead. It supports Custom Fields too.
( http://studentsoftraders.com/wp-signup.php )

* With BuddyPress installed, Custom Registration Fields are NOT applicable. BuddyPress themes usually come with their own Registration Form ( i.e. BuddyPress redirects you away from the default Registration Form, over to a special /register page ); BuddyPress also has its own Profile Field Configuration Tool, under BuddyPress -> Profile Field Setup. When BuddyPress is installed, the use of s2Member's Custom Fields is not advised; that is... UNLESS you're using the s2Member Pro Module. With the s2Member Pro Module, Custom Fields will be included in all PayPal® Pro Forms, including even Free Registration Forms generated by the s2Member Pro Module.

I'm not sure if that's helpful, but you did say "Anyone."

Good luck,
Lee

Thanks for your answer! it does help a little. I wish there was more information on this site on this. I am using Wordpress 3.0.1 with nothing else added, no Buddypress or multisite.

I do want to use the custom fields, but the problem I have is there about 20-25 fields I need to add and it would help alot if I could group theses fields in a specific manner. I dont mind creating the html code for this but I just need to know where it has to be called and what format it has to be so it could be saved back in the database.

Any generic way of doing this would be greatly appreciated!
