Hi, we are creating a new site for a company that has been in business for over 20 years. We want to invite our current active customers to create a new profile on the new site but we want to distinguish between real customers and everyone else simply. Is it possible to create a custom field that must match some sort of alphanumeric syntax that we can email directly to customers for them use at time of signup? This way we can sort them into a Joomla group designed just for them?
Let me know, thanks!

Hi,
Easy Profile do not do this, but you can create a simple plugin with our triggers to do this.
- Create a custom field called "Invite Code" (alias "invite_code"
available only in registration page
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:
You can test this also with Free version.
Here docs about our triggers: http://docs.easy-profile.com/index.php/article/triggers
NOTE: This code is not tested and not supported, this is only for example purpose.

$usergroup = 8; // REPLACE WITH ID OF USERGROUP
JsnHelper::addUserToGroup( $user, $usergroup );
