Hi:
On my website http://www.youbowl.com, I have a new user registration page, which is basically the EE default template. It asks for the requisite login/password information, as well as the custom fields data we added via the control panel defaults.
The problem here, obviously, is that our registration process is cumbersome. As such, it is desirable to make the registration process more efficient.
What we would like to do is break up the registration process into 2-3 parts, where the first part is the basic registration info (the bare-bones minimum registration data), the second part is the more detailed data collection (the optional part), and the third part (possibly) is specific site info and member development info (optional as well).
What is the best way of going about breaking this process up from the single registration page to a multi-stage registration process. I would ideally like to do this within the already-built EE protocols, but I could write PHP / MySql script to insert optional data into the database if required.
Just more desirable to work within what EE already provides. Advice??? Counsel???
Thanks…
