The Gravity Forms User Registration Add-On v1.0 Beta 1 is now available for download. This Add-On makes it possible to use Gravity Forms to create a User Registration form that automatically registers users on your WordPress site. This is great for replacing the built in WordPress registration form or for use on BuddyPress (v1.2.6) powered sites.
With the User Registration Add-On you can easily create a registration form that does more than just create a user account, it can also automatically populate user meta data and BuddyPress profile data as well as create a Gravity Forms entry to capture non-user registration related data. The User Registration Add-On also integrates with the PayPal Add-On to require a payment before the user is registered.
The Gravity Forms User Registration Add-On requires the latest build of Gravity Forms v1.5 and will not work with older versions of Gravity Forms. The PayPal integration requires the use of the PayPal Add-On.
Here are some of the features of the User Registration Add-On:
- User Registration - Setup a form to register a user by mapping your form fields to available user registration fields in WordPress.
- User Meta - Easily populate user meta data such as bio, instant messaging id, first name, last name as well as custom user meta to suit your needs.
- BuddyPress Integration - Populate BuddyPress profile field data as part of the user registration process. Currently works with BuddyPress v1.2.6.
- Payment Integration - Require a payment before user registration occurs. Includes support for PayPal subscriptions, and changing the user role or deleting the user if the subscription is canceled.
- Password Field - The User Registration Add-On adds a Password field to Gravity Forms for use in your forms. The Password field includes a confirmation option, as well as a built in password strength checker option.
ADD-ONS ARE ONLY AVAILABLE TO GRAVITY FORMS DEVELOPER LICENSE HOLDERS.

solid! how does it handle the revamped xprofile data (ie. custom profile data) for BP 1.3? say i'm asking for location data and have 'location' set up as one of my xprofile fields, is it possible to do this also within GF?
The User Registration Add-On has only been tested with BuddyPress 1.2.x (specifically 1.2.6) so I am not familiar with BuddyPress 1.3 as currently it was designed to work with the current public release of BuddyPress. As long as 1.3 doesn't change how the xprofile data is stored and simply extends the functionality with UI enhancements, etc. then it should work without any changes. If 1.3 changes how the xprofile data is stored then we will have to update the add-on to support the change.
I think you meant to say "Here are some of the features of the User Registration Add-On" instead of "Here are some of the features of the PayPal Add-On:"
Thanks for the amazing product.
Good catch, this has been corrected.
Will this also integrate with the MailChimp add-on? IOW, when a user signs up, they get the BuddyPress account *and* sign up for a MailChimp list (as a checkbox option, obviously)?
Absolutely. You can use the MailChimp Add-On and the User Registration Add-On together so that users are registered AND added to your MailChimp mailing list automatically. Same goes for the Campaign Monitor Add-On. They work together by design.
Sweet! That dev license I got last year has been my best WP purchase yet -- it just keeps growing in value. 🙂
i totally agree with @bluesplinter, it just keeps getting better and better. great job 😀
Great news! I agree with bluesplinter this is a great plugin that keeps getting better.
Meh! Only Dev license holders is slightly disappointing tbh
Add-Ons have always only been available to Developer License holders. It's one of the benefits of buying that license.
Is it possible to buy the add on as I only have a one site license.
Add-Ons are currently only available to Developers but we do have plans to make them more widely available.
Sweet! Just what I am looking for.
Question, will this give me the ability to use the "allow user to create post" feature to post articles under the users profile?
So for example, if I had a form that said create a post... and they are logged in, is there a way to automatically create a post associated to their profile name?
I know I could do with with the core functionality with wordpress but I don't want to send people to the wordpress /wp-admin/ , I want them to post right from their profile page.
Thanks!
Currently a form cannot create a User AND a Post assigned to that user from one form. The Post Creation relies on the user being logged in. The User Registration Add-On doesn't log the user in, it just creates the user. Just like the standard WordPress user registration process, the user still has to login. But we do have plans to make this possible so that a form can do both.
Will this allow for populating of custom profile meta data fields outside of BuddyPress? I am creating a WP multi-site, without social networking, but with extended profile options (i.e. - no BP). I have the custom fields saved in and hooked correctly so that they are showing and saving from the profile page.
Also, could this create a BLOG as well as a USER on a multi-site installation and pass all submitted data?
The User Registration Add-On can be used to populate WordPress User Meta and/or BuddyPress Profile Data. It can populate both.
It doesn't currently create sites in a Multi-Site install. But we plan on adding that functionality. If you are using BuddyPress it creates a user and then they create their own site(s) using the BuddyPress toolbar.
