I am looking for an extension for Joomla 3 that allows users to self-register after being provided a code. Different codes represent different user groups. Can easyprofile do this?
See for example: https://www.expertsupervisor.com/login_register.aspx

Hi,
in general you can't do this with Easy Profile.


_____________________________________

To do this you can:

ALTERNATIVE 1
Easy Profile extends Joomla User profile, so registration/edit profile pages are the same of Joomla and works with all Joomla Users Plugin. You can search a plugin to do this on Joomla extensions directory, should work.


ALTERNATIVE 2 (require PHP and Joomla Knowledge)
You need to develop a plugin

You can create a Text field for your code and when user register his account you can launch a plugin to check code and add to usergroup

here docs with skeleton plugin: https://www.easy-profile.com/docs/44-triggers.html

You can write something like this:
triggerProfileUpdate($user,&$data,$changed,$isNew){ 

  if($isNew){ 

        $code=$data['text_code_alias_field'];

        // CHECK YOUR CODE

        if($valid){

            require_once(JPATH_SITE.'/components/com_jsn/helpers/helper.php');

                JsnHelper::addUserToGroup($user,$group_id);

        }

  } 

}

Hello,

I also want to hide the usergroup choices, and make the field required, so without a correct code there would be no registration.

I have tested before finding this post. Using a textfield and parameter condition: equals custom value, add to usergroup
This seams to work now. Maybe the component had updated since this post?

Anyway, it also works with non excisting codes, then the user is only addes to the default usergroup. How can I make sure that it only works with the custom values added in Parameters/Conditions?
Is there a condition to do this?

Thank you

No sorry, our triggers are launched after user registration. You need to write a Joomla user plugin. Try to read here: https://docs.joomla.org/Plugin/Events/User#onUserBeforeSave

Tip: to get value of text field you can use this Joomla Class: JRequest::getVar('jform_alias-of-field')

Hi,
But I don't really need a public registration page, it can be by invitation only
Easy profile extends Joomla user profile, so registration/edit profile page are the same of Joomla (tabs are generated by Javascript and custom fields are loaded by user plugin), also registration process is the same of Joomla. To allow users to register with some passkey try to read this post: https://www.easy-profile.com/support/registration-field-question.html#reply-8307

- Hidden required field on registration, with usergroup assign conditions
- Set a default value from url /quote] You can create a hidden field with condition to hide field that assign usergroups. To set value from URL try to read here: https://www.easy-profile.com/docs/27-set-default-value-in-registration-from-url.html
