Use of Register Field

Is it the usual behaviour not to have submit button on login form. Any idea what is the use of loginform without submit button?

Submit article will be login button as well. It will automatically submit record and login.

For example if I want to create an avatar with image field on the same page of register, will it be saved?

This is what I was afraid when discussed this field. I know that if you create simple registration then people will ask for additional fields, then for synchronization of fields with JomSocial and Community Builder, then for profile manager, then for user groups, .... The list is endless. And we agreed that we only provide simple registration form. Minimum fields. :)

Thanks Sergey. Can I have the Submit button underneath the Login Form?

Ya I can understand this. But I think the minimum should be at least the Avatar field and Joomla Group. We already have Joomla Group enabled, but having an avatar image upload will be definitely a plus.

One thing I also noticed that the when you click submit or save , you get a blank page. Is there any settings to tell users with some message?

Brian,

see history of this field here

:)

Thanks for the link.

I think there is a bug present in the register field. Here are the steps:

1) Set up to use Captch-Recaptcha in the global configuration as default captcha

2) Select either default or Captch-Recaptcha on the cobalt configuration page

3) Create a field of Register type

4) Enter all information except leaving the captch field empty

5) Click Save button

You get a message saying as below:

Error

Login denied! Your account has either been blocked or you have not activated it yet.

Warning

Login has failed

You did not pass the challange.

Now check in the backend in user section. you will see that the user is created but without any activation. It is bypassing the captcha validation.

Also if you use recaptcha and even if you have entered correct public and private recaptcha key in plugin, you will get the message as below:

Error

Login denied! Your account has either been blocked or you have not activated it yet.

ReCaptcha plugin needs a public key to be set in its parameters. Please contact a site administrator.

Warning

Login has failed

Empty solution not allowed.

And the user record is created. I think it should not bypass the captcha and second thing is if you use recaptcha , theere is some issue with captcha public key, looks like it is not getting the value from the plugin.

I change Register field and made it so that user is activated before login. SHould not be a problem now even on form error. Just login user and then edit record already without register field.

Thanks Sergey. But I think it is best idea not to bypass the captcha field due to spam things. Can we not enforce users to enter in captcha before a record is created?

Brian

I cannot understand you want users to eneter captcha or not?

But captcha is already shown? Why to ask to chow it?

Hi Sergey,

I actually want captcha implementation. captcha is showing properly on the site, but it is not enforcing people to enter it. even if you dont enter anything in captcha box, the user record is still created.

any update

As we have tested user cannot add article unless pss through captcha successfully.
