Hi,

I have few queries. Request users to advise.

1. I would like to use email id as username at the registration page and subsequent pages for login etc.

2. I am using registration only to enable them to add/edit business listing using GeoDirectory. How do I restrict it. Users will not be allowed to add any post or comment etc.

3. I would like to activate registration after confirming their email id and one more verification (which can be text message on mobile or sending code to their physical address or something).

4. On the registration page, instead of showing the label inside the field, I would like to show on the left outside the box. (similar to add listing page in GeoDirectory)

Thanks in advance

This is not possible with UsersWP features and so would require your own customization.

2. I am using registration only to enable them to add/edit business listing using GeoDirectory. How do I restrict it. Users will not be allowed to add any post or comment etc.

UsersWP is not a membership or role management plugin yet. You will need another plugin to do that.

3. I would like to activate registration after confirming their email id and one more verification (which can be text message on mobile or sending code to their physical address or something).

We have a moderation addon, have you already tried that?

4. On the registration page, instead of showing the label inside the field, I would like to show on the left outside the box. (similar to add listing page in GeoDirectory)

This may be possible with CSS, please share a link to the page so we can take a look.

Thanks Alex for quick response. Appreciate.

I activated the moderation addon. But could not find option to send text message to user’s mobile number for verification purpose.

Can you recommend any plugin which can take care of my requirements. Though I have already purchased UsersWP, I do not wish to change the plugin after my project is launched.

We do not have an SMS verification addon at this time. If I hear of a good one I will let you know.

Hi suvadel,

Thanks for your reply. You can use the custom CSS code below to achieve what you needed there. Insert into WP > Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS
```

    color:    #fff!important;
}
:-moz-placeholder { /* Mozilla Firefox 4 to 18 */
   color:    #fff!important;
   opacity:  1;
}
::-moz-placeholder { /* Mozilla Firefox 19+ */
   color:    #fff!important;
   opacity:  1;
}
:-ms-input-placeholder { /* Internet Explorer 10+ */
   color:    #fff!important;
}

Thanks Kor,

It worked. Do you have any repository where I see such useful code.
