Add user specific fields

[mark2]

When a user registers on my site I would like to be able to differentiate between those who want to rent out their room and those who want to rent a room.

Critically for those who want to rent out a room I want them to then fill in compulsory fields that are only applicable to renting users.

Any suggestions?

Hi,

The easiest option is to restrict the attribute to categories in Listings > Attributes. Then, when you select a category, only those attributes that are associated with it will be displayed.

​I hope this is helpful to you.

Thanks for getting back to me
I dont really understand the solution you recomending.

The way I want it to work is the user at registration will have an option that says:
o Register to rent out your room
o Register to rent a room
o Both

Any if they select to rent a room or Both then there are additional qualifying questions that need to be answered in a seperate page that are required in order to contimue registration

It is not clear to me how to do that with categories within listings

Hi,

This will work if, after registration, the user selects a category to which different fields will be linked. If you need to add such questions for vendors, we recommend using this document: How to add vendor profile fields - HivePress Help Center. You can restrict attributes in WP Dashboard > Vendors > Attributes > and by editing the attribute on the right sidebar, you will be able to select a category.

This is working for me Except I have an issue, I am unable to access the vendor profile menu unless the user wants to list a room, and then it says complete your profile, but if the user wants to rent a room it does not ask them to give more details.

For my site I need to verify the users are in the medical field.

Any suggestions

Hi,

At the moment, there is no possibility to add user-specific attributes that would not be displayed for vendors, but they can be hidden for vendors using a code snippet. We can provide general guidance if you create user-specific fields.
