Within RegistrationMagic, the User Manager section enables administrators to effortlessly curate user profiles. This versatile tool allows admins to easily create, delete, view, and update user accounts. Moreover, the ability to assign specific user roles adds a layer of difference among users, enhancing the overall user management experience. The User Manager section is a cornerstone for administrators seeking seamless control and organization of user information within the RegistrationMagic plugin. In this article, we will look deeper into the user managers section. You can access it from the left menu in the RegistrationMagic plugin.

User Manager Dashboard

Within the User Manager dashboard, administrators find a comprehensive set of tools to facilitate various actions. The dashboard structure encompasses key components:

1. Adding a New User
2. Filtering Actions Based on Date and Roles
3. Comprehensive User Columns: Name, Email, Role, Submissions, Mails, Revenue, Registered On, and Last Login.

This well-organized dashboard equips admins with the necessary features to efficiently manage user-related tasks and access crucial information at a glance.

In the User Manager dashboard, individual users are presented with distinct rows. The initial column displays the user’s registered email. Following that, the subsequent columns showcase the user’s name and assigned role. The succeeding three columns have the counts of submissions, mails, and revenue attributed to that specific user. Concluding the display, the dashboard provides details on the user’s registration date and their most recent login time.

The User Manager dashboard facilitates streamlined user management by offering bulk actions. Admins can conveniently activate, deactivate, or delete a set of users collectively, simplifying overall processes. This feature proves particularly handy for efficiently handling large user datasets and ensures that user management tasks are executed with ease and efficiency. Further, change a user role to any of the following from the list given, options available are – Administrator, Editor, Author, Shop Vendor, etc. Further, more roles can be created in the settings.

The User Manager dashboard provides versatile filtering options based on both dates and roles. Users can conveniently filter data for today, yesterday, the last 7 days, the last 30 days, this month, or last month, or set a custom date range using the date filter. The role filter lists all available roles. Additionally, admins can customize the number of results displayed per page from the top right corner under “Results per page.” The search bar further aids in efficiently locating specific users within the dashboard.

Adding a new User

The admin can add a new user with the help of “Add New.” It opens the page for adding a new user by filling in all the relevant information.

The Add User mandates the inclusion of a username and email while offering additional optional fields such as first name, last name, website, password, profile image, and cover image. The admin has the flexibility to directly assign a role to the new user. Enabling “Send User Notification” triggers an email notification to inform the user about their newly created account.

View

Under every user, there are options like – View, Deactivate, Block Email, Delete, Login Details, and Send Email. This helps to know more details about the user.

This user view encompasses essential user details, including revenue (from WooCommerce sales), profile picture, first name, last name, email ID, role, bio, secondary email, nickname, and website. Admins can perform actions like editing, deleting, or deactivating users, with an additional option to send a new email. Further exploration is facilitated through options revealing custom field values, user form submissions, payment records, and WooCommerce details encompassing orders, addresses, and downloads.

The deactivate option deactivates a user, signaling their inactive status. This efficient feature is complemented by additional options like blocking email and deleting, providing a comprehensive set of tools for user management. This ensures streamlined control and management of user accounts, enhancing the overall administrative experience.

Login Details

The View section not only showcases user information but also offers direct access to login details through the “Login Details” option in the tab. This section meticulously records every login action executed by the user, providing a comprehensive overview of the user’s login history. This feature enhances transparency and accountability in user activity tracking, contributing to effective user management.

In conclusion, the User Manager section within the RegistrationMagic plugin empowers administrators with efficient user curation tools. From creating and deleting users to managing roles and conducting bulk actions, the dashboard streamlines administrative tasks. The detailed user view, coupled with filters and search options, ensures a comprehensive understanding of user data. The ability to customize user roles, and privacy settings, and initiate new email communications adds a layer of flexibility. With a focus on user transparency, the Login Details section offers a clear timeline of user login activities. In essence, RegistrationMagic’s User Manager optimizes user management, promoting seamless and organized administrative workflows.

An Inbox Designed for Enhanced Productivity

Form submissions are neatly organized in columns. “All” displays all form submissions, both Read and Unread, each accompanied by a count. The users can perform bulk actions, including Delete, Mark Read, and Mark Unread, on all form submissions within the inbox.

The date filter allows one to sort form submissions based on date, with options such as Today, This Week, This Month, and This Year. Additionally, the form filter categorizes submissions according to the specific form they were submitted to, listing all forms created by a user. In the premium version of the new inbox, advanced filtering options are available, including property filters such as has note, user block, attachment, no attachment, payment received, payment pending, and offline pending payment. Furthermore, the users can also save a search as a filter for future use, customizing their filtering preferences. Mark All Read option marks all the form submissions as read. It makes the count of Unread submissions 0.

User Registration Menu & Filters

All form submissions appear in columns titled Submission, Form, Received On, Attachments, Notes, Outbox, Status, and Payment. The Submission column displays the email addresses used for the submissions. The Form column indicates the specific form used for each submission. In the Received column, submissions can be sorted by either the earliest or latest date. Attachments, notes, and outbox columns provide counts of the respective items associated with each submission. The Status column employs color-coding to represent custom statuses, which are customizable through the viewing options. Lastly, the Payment column indicates any pending payments, if applicable.

User Registration Controls at your Fingertips

Each form submission in the inbox presents a range of options for users. These options encompass View, Quick View, Block IP, Block Email, PDF, Read/Unread, and Delete.

• The View option is detailed under Submissions View Manager.
• Quick View offers a rapid display of the form submission, including essential information such as name, attached screenshots (if any), email, website, and description.
• Block IP and Block Email functions allow users to block individuals based on their IP or email addresses.
• The PDF option generates a PDF document of the complete form submission and saves it locally on the user’s PC.
• The Read/Unread option serves to label form submissions as read or unread.
• Finally, the Delete option removes the form submission from the inbox.

User Registration Submissions – Detailed View

The Submission View option provides additional functionality beyond the main page menu. The Add Note feature enables users to personalize notes by adding text, choosing note colors, and deciding whether it should be visible to the user. The Send Message feature allows users to compose new messages for recipients. Another useful feature is the ability to add a custom status label from the available options. If there are any related submissions, they can be viewed under “Related Submissions Found.”

In a world flooded with data, this specialized inbox revolutionizes productivity and organization. Its user-friendly design and rich feature set enable efficient form submission management, reducing chaos and saving time. Whether filtering by date, form type, or advanced properties, it provides the flexibility and control for streamlined communication. It’s a valuable tool that empowers users to handle their inboxes with precision and ease.

You can manage user registration status in WordPress with RegistrationMagic’s Custom Status Labels & Associated Actions.

In the RegistrationMagic platform, custom registration statuses with predefined labels and associated actions are available. The Custom Status screen exhibits three key menu elements: All Statuses, New Status, and Delete. The comprehensive all-status page functions as the primary interface for managing custom user registration statuses. Within this section, users can review their established predefined and personally created custom statuses, presented in a tabular format. Each row displays the custom status color, corresponding label, and an expandable view button for easy modification access if needed.

Additionally, users can actively remove established statuses using the “Delete” page. Continuing, we move to the new custom status page. 

We have discussed the Custom Status application with couple of workflows here:

WordPress User Registration Status Guide

Custom Status Labels

Prebuilt Status Labels

RegistrationMagic provides several prebuilt labels that users can directly apply to the form submissions. These labels include “Approved,” “Pending,” and “Rejected.” The “Approved” status within the plugin can be applied to successful registration and user submission validation. “Pending” status can be used as submission review, awaiting verification or approval by administrators before accessing requested services or content. “Rejected” status can be used for unsuccessful registration due to non-compliance, requiring users to review and resubmit details for reconsideration. These labels can be customized according to the needs.

Custom Status Labels

Users can choose to create a new label, giving it a distinct name to differentiate it from other custom statuses. Enter details for the newly created custom status in the description field. It’s worth emphasizing that the description only appears within the custom status Add/Edit interface and does not appear in submission entries within the inbox.

Furthermore, color can be used as an extra distinguishing feature. We recommend choosing unique and contextually relevant colors for each custom status to ensure clarity.

Associated Actions

Edit Other Statuses

Enabling the “Edit Other Statuses” option empowers users to impact other Custom Statuses instantly upon applying this Custom Status to the form submission. Within this context, three additional options come into play.

1. Do Nothing: This option leaves other custom statuses unaffected upon application.
2. Clear all different statuses: It removes all other custom statuses from the form submission when applying this custom status.
3. Clear Specific statuses: Users can choose from a list to selectively remove only designated custom statuses from the form submission window. Enabling this option provides a list of all available Custom Statuses for selection.

Email to User/Admin

Enabling the “Email to User” or “Email to Admin” option permits sending an email to the relevant individual. Once activated, this option triggers the email dispatch upon applying the specific custom status. The email encompasses both the subject and body of the message or content intended for transmission. 

User Account Options 

The user account options enable interaction with the user account upon applying this custom status. There are four available options:

1. Create User Account: Generates the user’s account on the site upon application of this Custom Status to the form submission.
2. Activate User Account: Activates the user’s account on the site when this Custom Status is applied to the form submission.
3. Deactivate User Account: Disables the user’s account on your site upon application of this Custom Status to the form submission.
4. Delete User Account: Erases the user’s account from your site as soon as this Custom Status is applied to the form submission.

Attach Note

Enabling this option grants the ability to attach an admin note immediately upon applying this custom status to the form submission. By selecting the “Public Note” checkbox, the note becomes accessible to the user. The note text can be inputted within the “Note Text” text area.

Blacklist

Activating this option restricts the user linked to the form submission from future access to the form. Additionally, if you encounter unwanted form submissions originating from certain email addresses and/or IPs, you can utilize the “Block Email,” “Block IP,” “Unblock Email,” and “Unblock IP” choices. These options are accessible when the respective feature is enabled. “Block Email” prevents users based on their email addresses, while “Block IP” does the same based on their IPs.

Note that Custom Status Labels are accessible for Free for all users, but Associated Actions are included in the RegistrationMagic Premium package.

Download RegistrationMagic Premium here.

Applying custom status to registrations

You can label the form submissions with custom statuses directly from the inbox. Select the form from drop down menu. Next, click the “view” button within the desired form submission to which you wish to assign the custom status. In the form submission, simply click the “+” symbol to incorporate your custom statuses. A comprehensive list of all available custom statuses is provided in list format.

Our valued RegistrationMagic users can now enjoy the incredible power of Custom Status Labels and Associated actions. We believe these enhancements will greatly boost your productivity and simplify your user registration management. Try the custom status and let us know what you think!

If you are already a user of our WordPress registration plugin, you maybe aware that it’s like a swissknife for managing user registrations on your WordPress site. Many of its feature sets (a.k.a extensions) work like toolkits which can be modified to serve any business or industry vertical. And once you combine power of these feature sets to match your workflows. It is then, you realize the full potential of RegistrationMagic plugin and our WordPress User Registration Status feature will only make things better.

By the way, it is completely fine if you wish to use RegistrationMagic for just filling up WordPress registration forms and it will shine as well as any other system out there. But its real power lies beyond that. For most businesses, submitting a form is start of a workflow and not the complete process in itself. You have people filling up your registration forms, now what? How do you take care of the next steps? Would you not love to have a system that take care of everything beyond the submission right there inside the WordPress dashboard itself? 

When it comes to taking care of complete WordPress user registration and form submission processes that extend beyond filling up forms, RegistrationMagic is a complete registration solution in itself. And even if you do not need everything it offers, you can be rest assured that it will scale with your business, if and when you need it. So you can pack and stow away your nightmare about switching to something else during peak season and hiring developers to migrate your form data. Let’s discuss how WordPress User Registration Status can help admins.

WordPress User Registration Status User Basics

One of the most important customizable extensions in RegistrationMagic is Custom WordPress User Registration Status. Custom Statuses fulfill following requirements:

1. Tagging or labeling form Submissions
2. Executing multiple actions on a submission with single click
3. Additional 4th level filtering option for submissions

Image: Default Custom WordPress User Registration Status screen

Apart from serving as handy labels or tags, each Custom WordPress User Registration Status can also have a set of action associated with it. Following actions are currently possible with every Status:

1. Remove an existing Status
2. Remove all existing Statuses
3. Send an Email to the user
4. Send an Email to the Admin
5. Create User Account
6. Delete User Account
7. Activate User Account
8. Deactivate User Account
9. Attach Private or User Note
10. Ban Email
11. Ban IP
12. Unblock Email
13. Unblock IP

Not all registration processes are simple accept or reject scenarios. There can be multi admin vetting, conditional approvals, temporary or permanent rejections etc. (Please note, RegistrationMagic already has you covered if you want to have automated vetting of submissions! – check out WordPress forms Automation guide.) To demonstrate power of WordPress Custom User Status, we will create an imaginary scenario. Once again, you may or may not need all the features; it’s totally up to you how and what you want to use. We keep adding features to RegistrationMagic to cover all possible scenarios. So here’s what will happen:

Scenario

1. User submits form 1
2. Admin 1 vets the form. Based on the outcome:
   1. Admin 1 Rejects the form.   
   2. OR Admin 1 Approves the form and asks user to fill another form.
3. User submits form 2
4. Admin 2 vets the form. Based on the outcome:
   1. Admin 2 rejects the form, deactivates user account and blocks user email.
   2. Approves the forms and activates user account.

Preliminaries:

We will create following properties in RegistrationMagic:

1. For Step 1: Sample Form 1
2. Step 2: Custom Status ‘First Rejection’ and ‘First Approval’
3. Step 3: Sample Form 2
4. Form Step 4: Custom Status ‘Final Rejection’ and ‘Final Approval’

Although, to keep things simple, we will create basic forms, you can use Custom WordPress User Registration Statuses with any type of forms. We shall also make sure that submission notification form Sample Form 1 goes to Admin 1 and for Sample Form 2 goes to Admin 2. Additionally, success messages and auto-responders for both forms should be set to inform users about the next steps.

To make sure user accounts are not active before Admin 1 vets and approves their submission, we’ll turn off Auto Approval. This is done from Global Settings in RegistrationMagic’s left menu:

In Global Settings, click User Accounts:

Now we select Deactivate User for Manual Approval in Account Activation Method option.

To set up specific email notification for both admins, we go to form Dashboard (by going back to All Forms link clicking Dashboard on form card) and click Global Overrides. Global Overrides allow us to set up form specific email notifications.

To set autoresponders for each form, we click Auto Responder icon in form dashboad.

Image: Autoresponder for Sample Form 1

To form submission success message, click Post Submission in form Dashboard:

Image: Success Message for Sample Form 1

We shall associate following actions with the Custom WordPress User Registration Statuses we create:

First Rejection:

1. Send an Email to the User informing him/ her about the rejection
2. Delete user account

First Approval:

1. Activate user account
2. Send an Email to the User with link to fill up next form

Final Rejection:

1. Send an Email to the User informing him/ her about the final rejection
2. Delete User account
3. Ban Email

Final Approval:

1. Send an Email to the user informing him/ her about the approval

Here’s how our Custom WordPress User Registration Status screen looks like now for both forms:

Image: Custom WordPress User Registration Statuses for Sample Form 1

Image: Custom WordPress User Registration Statuses for Sample Form 2

Now we have to do one more thing – we make sure the Sample Form 2 is only visible to the users who already have filled Sample Form 1 and are approved. Otherwise anyone with a link can fill up the form breaking the workflow. To do this, we go to the Sample Form 2’s Dashboard and click Limits. Turn on Limits and select Limit by Status(es). Select First Approval from the list. That’s it! All we have to do not is publish the forms.

Here’s the Demo workflow:

• User fills up and submits Sample Form 1.

• Form submits successfully and user sees success message.

• User receives email with acknowledgement link to check the form status on site (account not active yet.)

• Both Admins receive form submission notification.

• Admin 1 logs in and vets the form.

• Admin 1 marks the form submission for ‘First Approval’.

• User receives account activation email

• User visits the site and checks the form status online.

• Both admins receive emails that a form submission has been marked ‘First Approval’.

• User receives email with link to Sample Form 2.

• Next, User fills up and submits Same Form 2.

• User sees success message

• Admin 2 receives notification that a new form has been submitted.

• Admin 2 logs in and filters the forms marked ‘First Approval’.

• User receives email. Admin 2 vets the form and marks it ‘Final Approval’

• User receives email.

• Both admin receive email that a form has been marked ‘Final Approval’.

As you can see from this fairly simple demonstration that Custom WordPress User Registration Status provide a pretty solid framework to align form submissions and user registrations with your backoffice workflow. We have not yet touched all the feature available inside WordPress User Registration Status extension, or things that can be done in combination with other 50 odd extensions, including our advance WordPress user login plugin extension. This workflow can be branched and extended into multiple steps. Hopefully this provides ample hint of power hidden beneath many layers of RegistrationMagic. Until next time, and stay connected with us on Facebook!

In a busy membership site, where users register every minute, the admin has no time to approve each account manually. An Admin can get WordPress accounts that need to be approved almost every minute. Also, manual approval of WordPress user accounts will slow down the workflow of the site as well. Thus RegistrationMagic offers the feature of Account Activation via Mail.

Here the admin can be sure of approving each WordPress user account manually, minus the hassle of logging into the dashboard every time. The admin will not have to activate or approve each user one by one. Instead, the plugin will automate this task and make it a matter of one click for the admin. This will also ensure that the user has a verified mail id since the account approval will be done through a verification mail.

This WordPress user registration plugin not just helps you create dynamic registration forms or smart contact forms in WordPress. It also takes care of the fact that you get verified users on your site. And the admin stays tension-free regarding the approval of new WordPress user accounts.

So, let’s start today’s tutorial by first creating a form that will create WordPress accounts on your site. Then we will go ahead and get into the process of approving these WordPress free accounts without logging into the dashboard.

The post How to Approve WordPress User Accounts Without Logging Into Dashboard appeared first on RegistrationMagic.

When you create WordPress forms to take users on your site, you add data fields to it. Different WordPress user registration plugins have different data fields to add to default forms. These fields help your users to enter relevant data about themselves. Based on these data an admin also gets to verify their users.

But if you are taking users in a membership site then these users might want to edit WordPress forms data. The need to edit WordPress forms data can be for any purpose. And when users get to do that on their own without having to ask the admin, they connect to a site more. Also, your site becomes interactive to the users making it more popular.

Here, we will take the help of RegistrationMagic to add data fields to a default form. Since this plugin allows users to edit WordPress forms data after submission. It lets the admin create a user profile on site where they can edit their data fields, reset password as per their choice.

So first, let us start this article by creating a form and adding custom user fields to it. Then we will create a custom user area from where the users can edit WordPress forms data. And you will see the role of preset shortcodes in the process, that will lessen our job to a lot of extents.

Publish WordPress Forms

RegistrationMagic makes it really simple to create and publish dynamic WordPress forms on your site. There are even options to display WordPress forms using HTML codes as well as its own preset shortcodes.

You will find an All Forms page on your site that stores all the forms that you create with this plugin.

On every form cover in the All forms page, you will find a unique shortcode. This shortcode appears as soon as users create a form. The form cover also shows two links, the Fields and Dashboard link.

The Fields link allows users to add user data fields on the form. While the Dashboard lets the users take care of the WordPress form security, payment, design, analytics etc.

We will first publish this form and then add custom user data fields to it.

Now, copy the shortcode from the form card. Paste it on a new WordPress page and click on Publish.

You will then find your form on the frontend of your site. This form will register users on your site who can later edit the form data from their frontend profiles.

Add User Data Fields To Your Form

Now, since you are done publishing your form, you will add your fields to define it. RegistrationMagic offers a wide array of fields to choose from. There are timers, country, number, price, registration feed, form metadata etc. fields that you can add to your form.

I told you earlier that once you install the RegistrationMagic plugin, you get the All Forms page that stores all your forms. So, from the Fields link on the form cover, you can now start adding custom user data fields to your form.

After clicking on the Fields link you will land on the Field Manager page. Here you will find all the forms that you will add to a certain form. All the fields that you add to each form stay unique to them.

From here, click on the Add Fields link at the top left corner of the page. You will find a pop up opening up with all the preset fields and widgets of this plugin.

Allow Users to Edit WordPress Forms Data

So, as you select the option, Allow Users to Edit this Field after Submission you now have to give your users a User Area

In the above form, you can see the Country Field with a drop down marked in red.

Once your users fill this field they will find it on their user area pages with an edit icon beside it. So our next job is to create a custom user area or profile page on the frontend of your site.

Create Custom User Area Page

Again go to the All Forms page from the plugin menu. Then hover on a form cover and click on the Dashboard link.

As you land on the Dashboard page of the form you can see the registration feed and other form statistics. Now scroll down right to the “Publish” section. Then click on the “User Area” icon on the second row. This section will allow you to set up a custom user profile page on your site.

The Publish section of the form has the shortcut to publish various pages on your site. From HTML code to a user directory page or login box you get several options.

Clicking on the “User Area” header displays a pop up with a shortcode. This shortcode allots a user specific area on your site. Using this shortcode you can create a custom user profile page in WordPress.

Now click on “Copy” from the link below. To sum up, this only completes a part of this tutorial where you extract the shortcode to publish a user profile on your site. Your users will land here after signing in. Then from their respective user profiles, the users can edit WordPress forms data. Thus making the user area an active section for your users to stay engaged.

Publish Custom User Area Page in WordPress

Next comes pasting the shortcode to create the custom user area page. Go to the Pages section from your site dashboard. Then click on “Add New” to create a new page where custom user profile page will appear. You are now on the screen with “Add New Page” as the heading. Give a unique title to your new page. In this case, we label the title “Custom User Profile”. So, this title will display on the front end of your WordPress site.

Paste the shortcode copied from the “User Area” section of your form Dashboard on the content section of the page. You can also add media or image files to your page from this space.

Click on “Publish” placed on the right side of the screen. Your page is now published very simply with the help of this plugin’s shortcode. Click on “View Page” to see the front end view of the user profile page on your site. You can also use the link below your site title to see your custom user page.

Custom User Area on Site

Above is an image of the user area that we just published with the preset shortcode of RegistrationMagic. It is complete with a profile image so if you put this field on your form, your users can see their image here. Along with that, there is an Inbox where your users can see all the mails sent from this site.

The welcome screen usually displays the Personal data of the user. If custom fields such as “First Name”, “Email” and “Nick Name” are part of the form then it appears on this page. So, you can see here, that a list of all the field values are here along with a tab below Edit Your Submissions. Your users can thus edit all the fields that are marked with the option Allow Users to Edit this Field after Submission.

We added the country field and that is also here for the users to edit when they feel. Your users will find their user profiles much more interactive when they get to edit their data fields.

The Password field is by default an editable field thus there is a dedicated area to Reset Password.

Editing Submissions from the Dashboard

To edit a form submission from the Dashboard, click on the “Inbox” sub-menu under the “RegistrationMagic” Dashboard menu. This will lead you to a tabular view where you can see all form submissions in one place. You can see submissions for a specific form by using the “Toggle Form” option in the top right of this page.

To edit a form submission, click on the “View” link on the right of the submission’s entry in the table. This takes you to the page where you can see all the details for that particular form submission. At the bottom of this page is the link “Edit This Submission”. Click on this link and you can edit the details for that form submission.

The Benefit of Editing Fields after Form Submission

There are hardly any data in a man’s life that stays constant forever. Apart from the date of birth and name people tend to change their address, designation, place of work with time. People even change their names if they feel like. So, when there are no constant data in a man’s life, it is better to give them the option to edit it as per their choice.

In my form, there are fields such email id, designation, first name, last name etc.  One can use this form to register staff members of an office. So when these users spend quite some time in this office they might have a change in their positions. This will allow them to edit their positions with time.

Also, the country field remains variable for many working professionals who travel or settle in new places for business purposes.

Apart from that, RegistrationMagic offers various fields that can be an editable field for your users. However,  there are a few fields in this plugin that are not in the hands of the user to edit from their profiles.

These are called the Widgets of this plugin. These widgets fall under the Display Fields of this plugin. They usually display data the WordPress forms. While the Fields help a form builder to collect data from users.

These widgets are of various types from a rich text, heading, divider or space. These widgets adorn your form to make it look efficient.

So remember, apart from the Display Field, you can allow your users to edit other field data after form submission.

A Plugin to Create an All Round Membership Site

So, if you create a user area page for your users they can edit WordPress forms data without even having to ask the admin. For a membership site, this feature is of immense importance. Your users not only get their own profiles they can edit their data when they need. So for any wrong entry or data update, the admin does not have to bother every time.

RegistrationMagic thus is not just your regular form builder plugin. It has all the features to create a complete membership site with dynamic custom forms, user areas, login page etc.

The liberty to edit WordPress forms data is a very common practice now due to the abundance membership sites all around. But this was not so common earlier since the whole responsibility of user data stayed in the hands of the admin.

With a jump in the number of users, it becomes gradually difficult to manage all user data from the backend. Users also feel less connected to the site since for every little change they need to notify the admin. This is a much smarter way to handle user data than sending data edit request mails to the admin. Here the sole responsibility to edit WordPress forms and updating data stay in the hands of the profile owner. So the admin gets the space to solely look after the site.

This plugin can thus help you turn your WordPress site into a professional. You can even buy and sell products with your forms and build an online shopping site with RegistrationMagic.

As your user logs in, they find the Admin Bar at the top of your site. It is basically a toolbar that allows access to the dashboard features quickly on the frontend. However, you wouldn’t always find it useful to have it on the frontend for logged in users. If you are searching for a way to disable WordPress Admin Bar for all users except the admin, or hide WordPress admin bar look no further. All you need is the help of the RegistrationMagic plugin.

How to hide admin bar in WordPress for users?

Usually, people prefer having the Admin Bar on top of their pages when logged in from the frontend. But there are some instances where having the toolbar turned off is much more preferable. Instances where you need to showcase a site page in its full display while still logged in to the site. Since the admin bar has all the editing features you’d usually find on the dashboard, it’s best to keep it hidden in such cases.

Moreover, the admin bar is more useful to the admin, author or editors. These WordPress user roles have an active part in site development. That is why they need access to the admin bar as it contains quick shortcuts to various screens on the dashboard.

The admin bar is visible on the backend as well as the frontend of your site. Below is an image depicting the admin bar at the top of the dashboard screen. I have marked it in red for a better view.

WordPress usually informs the admin whenever there is a new user registration on the site. The admin receives all the info of the user in an email. This email contains user input for all fields of the user registration form. Considering this, you can easily assume that this email is quite a handy tool. It helps the admin to manage and keep a watch on WordPress new user registration. So, why is there a need to disable new user notification emails on your WordPress site?

Well, some admins see this email as clutter in their inboxes. It is always a time consuming task for an admin to review each and every user registration. Luckily, it isn’t too tough for site admins to disable new user notifications anymore. And that is only possible with the help of the RegistrationMagic plugin.

Using the “Email Notifications” feature of this WordPress registration forms plugin, you can now disable new user notification on your site very easily.

In this tutorial, we will show you how to disable new user notifications using the RegistrationMagic plugin. To start with, first, activate and install the plugin on your site dashboard.

From “Global Settings”, go to the “Email Notifications” settings. This is where you can manage new user notifications as well as other general email notification settings. From notifying users about submission notes to setting up outgoing email handlers. This space is complete with all the email templates that one needs in their site. Here you can also choose between User External SMTP and default WordPress as outgoing email handlers. We are going to use this “Email Notifications” setting to disable new user notification emails on your WordPress site.

The Advantage of Global Settings

The “Global Settings” option controls every aspect of your forms that you create through this plugin. You can find various types of settings here, such as WordPress form security, External Integrations, User Accounts, and many more. The “Global Settings” page basically lets you manage all forms in your dashboard globally. Thus, you don’t have to work on each form individually. Apart from this, each form has its own dashboard which has the same settings as “Global Settings”. This lets you work on each of the forms singly. You might not want to set up payment for every form on your site. So, for example, you can choose to not activate WordPress form payment for every form on your site from “Global Settings”. So, you can select a particular form and set up the payment option for it from its dashboard.

Once inside the “Email Notifications” settings, you will see that the “Notify Site Admin” checkbox is checked by default. Due to this setting, the site admin gets an email notification on each form submission.

After enabling the “Notify Site Admin” setting, you will see another setting appear right below it. This is the “Define Recipients Manually” setting. You can manually add another email address here to ensure it also receives the notification as the admin does. Clicking on the “Click to add more” button will allow you to add more than one email addresses. You can set as many recipients as you want from this setting.

Now, to disable new user notification emails on your WordPress site, simply uncheck the “Notify Site Admin” checkbox. Unchecking it does not mean that the admin cannot see new user registrations at all. The admin can check new user registration from the site dashboard whenever he/she wants.

Just don’t forget to click on the “Save” button after making changes to the settings. Clicking on “Save” will get you back to the “Global Settings” screen.

Making Life Easy

The admins usually spend a lot of time managing their sites and ensuring their success. However, spending too much time on any single activity can take attention away from other important things. Like the development of the site. The admin has to look into the content to the products, to the users of the site. Hence, it becomes crucial to keep a few things off from the admin’s job. The new user notification being one of them. Apart from this, there are options to create new roles and set jobs for these roles with this plugin.

It is quite a challenging job to manage a user registration based WordPress site. These sites let the admin know the global reach of their business. They get to know the success of these sites when users register from around the world. However, one can also create intelligent contact forms to know the global reach of their patrons. So that, the site does not become bulky due to long registration forms. One can also keep contact forms along with user registration forms. The contact forms can let you get the contact details of users. So that one can send daily updates and newsletters to these users.

Therefore, in this tutorial, we are going to see how we can disable WordPress user without deleting their account using RegistrationMagic.

Managing User Accounts

Visit RegistrationMagic from your WordPress dashboard and click on its “User Manager” menu item. RegistrationMagic’s “User Manager” screen is where all the features for managing user accounts are. It gives the site admin total power to edit user accounts the way he/she wants. And that too from a single place.

The “User Manager” screen has options for activation, deactivation and deletion of user accounts. You can also filter user accounts by their current status. Filtering will help in seeing clearly which user accounts are active and which ones aren’t. To edit a particular user account, click on the “View” link in the “Action” column of that account. This will take you to a page which contains all information on that user.

Disable WordPress User Without Deleting Their Account

Right below the user’s name on the user profile page, there are some links. These links are “Edit”, “Delete”, “Deactivate”, and “Send a new email”. It should be pretty obvious what these links do. The “Deactivate” link is the one which is of interest to us. Clicking on it will deactivate the user’s account without deleting it.

Now, what if you want to deactivate more than one user? You can’t just visit each and every profile to deactivate it. Instead, you can deactivate user accounts in bulk from the “User Manager” screen. From the user profile screen, go back to where you saw the list of all users, the “User Manager” screen. You’ll find that there’s a checkbox at the beginning of each user account row here. Checking the box will select the user account in that row. After selecting the user accounts which you want to deactivate, click on the “Deactivate” link that is below the “User Manager” screen heading.

Now all the selected user accounts are deactivated.

Likewise, to unblock a user, select it with the checkbox and click the “Activate” link. Pending user accounts can also be activated the same way.

This concludes our tutorial on how to disable WordPress users without deleting their accounts.
