I received an updated version of the Form Builder add-on (Version 3.3) through a support ticket.
This, in combination with the latest version of the Simple WordPress Membership plugin (Version 3.1.0), fixed this issue for me.

Now, the email field in the registration form is populated with the Paypal email address (the First Name & Last Name fields too), and there is no ’email Already taken’ error – the new member gets saved.

Happy this has been resolved!

Yes – the users who attempt the registration after Paypal and get the ‘*email* Already taken’ error, their first and last names and email are already saved in the list of Members under the Members tab.

The first and last names are those from the Paypal account (and have not been inputted elsewhere), so it must be getting these and the email address from Paypal.

It seems to me there is an issue with the Form Builder add-on which, instead of using the email address from Paypal to auto-populate the registration email field (as the regular Simple WP Membership plugin registration form does), sees the email address in the list of Members and then gives the error that it’s already taken.

Disabling the Form Builder add-on and using the same Paypal / email address, I can register no problem.

I have tried this with new email addresses, and with all other plugins disabled apart from Simple WP Membership and the Form Builder add-on, using the default Twenty Fifteen theme – I still get the same error.

Hoping for a solution to this!
Thanks

Hi There,
I am having the exact same problem!
I have up to date versions installed of both the Simple WP Membership plugin and the Form Builder add-on.

I even went into phpmyadmin and searched on the email address I was using and changed a couple of instances saved in wp_usermeta – but I still get the email ‘Already Taken’ error.

When I was using Simple WP Membership without the form builder add-on it all worked fine and the registration form auto-populated with the Paypal first and last names and the email address.

I need a solution for this!
Did anyone else get a reply to a premium ticket?

Thanks
