Generate a registration link for members who've paid by cheque/check

[CSFLA]

Is it possible to add to the existing ‘generate a registration completion link’ in Settings > Tools to enable a registration link to be generated for a member who has not paid online? We get the odd person who pays via cheque, but then requires an online account. We don’t want to have to type in all of their details manually if it’s possible just to email them a link to complete themselves. I don’t think it would be too hard to integrate it with this function. Many thanks 🙂

Hi, the plugin developers will investigate further your request.

You should be able to handle the manual/offline payment registration using the following option:

Thanks for the reply and suggestion. Yes, that sort of works. But it has the potential to allow people to use the sign up form multiple times if they have the page password, given the password is static? Or, indeed, they could distribute the password to let other people sign up for free? I might be able to work a single-use token into the process however, so I’ll see how I get on tweaking things…

In addition to what I posted above, I have just tried using the approach that you have suggested. It only works if you enable ‘free’ membership’, but by enabling free membership also allows users to access the main sign up form, which I don’t want. The only way to prevent this is by setting the free membership level to zero, but that means an error message appears if someone accesses the main form, which does prevent them submitting it, but is a bit clunky. Is there any way to enable the shortcode method that you’ve outlined above, without also enabling access to the main application signup form?

Sorry. another following up…

I have just discovered that setting the free membership to 0 actually breaks the entire system and prevents anyone accessing the form. Am I doing something wrong here? Surely if you have an add on that enables you to put forms behind password protection on a page, it doesn’t requite free membership to be enabled?
