Hi there.

I need generate an additional unique ID during registration of a new user.
The process would be like this:
- user fills in the registration form
- there is hidden invisible on registration form field for additional user's ID
- after user has pressed "register" button, system generates an unique string of symbols and put is into the field from the previous point.

Is it possible? Should I upgrade to basic or pro level, or I should write own plugin as it described in http://docs.easy-profile.com/index.php/article/triggers ?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Is it possible?
Yes.

Should I upgrade to basic or pro level, or I should write own plugin as it described in http://docs.easy-profile.com/index.php/article/triggers ?
No, you can do this also with Free version :)

1. Create a text field with these parameters:
- Title: "Unique ID"
- Alias: "unique_id"
- Visible on Edit Profile: NO (Keep in mind that you can still change this field from Backend)
- Visible on Registration: NO

2. Create your plugin based on our skeleton plugin:
- Download, Install and Enable Skeleton Plugin (you will find it at http://docs.easy-profile.com/index.php/article/triggers)
- Open file /plugins/jsn/skeleton/skeleton.php
- remove samples functions: triggerFieldAvatarUpdate, triggerProfileUpdate
- add function like this:
public function triggerProfileUpdate($user, &$data, $changed, $isNew)
{
if($isNew)
{
$uniqueID = /* HERE YOUR FUNCTION TO GENERALE UNIQUE ID */
$data['unique_id']=$uniqueID;
}
}


NOTE: This code is not tested and not supported, this is only for example purpose.
