Custom registration page

Hi there,

How are you creating the sign up page? Using a plugin? If so, is it possible to display the sign up box using a shortcode?

Hi Tom,
Thanks for your prompt reply. I'm using WP multisite and this registration comes I believe from Pro Sites https://premium.wpmudev.org/project/pro-sites plugin. However, I found on their forum someone mentioned that "pro site doesn't provide its own registration form but its uses internally wordpress default registration process".

I'm a little confused but I think perhaps it requires creating a custom registration page on a child theme?
Thanks for your help.

Hmm, I'm not familiar with that plugin unfortunately. Have you tried asking their support if it's possible to add the form to a static page?

Hi Tom,
This page https://bandcloud.net/wp-signup.php is actually not using Pro Sites plugin as I previously thought. I think it's just a standard WP page, WP multisite in this case.
When I inspect the page, it says that it uses page-template-default so my question is how I can can use a custom page with a custom page header for the /wp-signup.php page?

Many thanks,
Adam

I'm not sure it's possible to make wp-signup.php a static page.

I wonder if it's possible to create a signup page using a shortcode along with your membership plugin? That way you could use a static page.

Basically what I need is to have a custom header on this page https://bandcloud.net/wp-signup.php.
Currently I have Big Head selected on my homepage and it's selected as the static page. I don't want the Big Head page header the wp-signup.php. When I disable Big Head from the homepage then it solves the problem on the wp-signup.php page but obviously the Big Head is supposed to stay on the homepage.

What the best way to tackle this issue?

Many thanks,
A.

So you have a Page Header created and applied to the front page only (in Global Locations, or the static page?), yet it's displaying on wp-signup.php as well?

Correct. Just to clarify, it's WP multisite and I'm using your theme on the main domain https://bandcloud.net. I have a static page selected https://ibb.co/nCPRu8 which is what you can see here https://bandcloud.net. This page has Big Head page header selected: https://ibb.co/hchqMo. When I go to register, the same header shows up https://bandcloud.net/wp-signup.php. If I remove it from the homepage it also disappears on the wp-signup.php page.

That's so strange. I assume there's some sort of bug inside WordPress and wp-signup.php. I can't even find a conditional where we can target wp-signup.php.

We can hide the header on that page, but I'm not sure we can add a custom one.

The other solution I can think of is being able to create the signup form on a regular static page (not wp-signup.php). Then you could redirect wp-signup.php to the static page, which would have its own header.
