How to enable vendor registration

General HivePress

Hello, I’m trying to figure out how to automatically create a seller (supplier) profile for someone who registers on my website, without them needing to fill out a seller (supplier) form. Thank you for your help.

Bonjour, je cherche à faire s’il vous plait, a ce que quand une personne s’inscrive sur mon site cela créé automatiquement un profile vendeur (fournisseur). sans quelle est besoin de passer par un formulaire vendeur (fournisseur). Merci pour votre aide

Hi @Chris9123,

To enable direct vendor registration in HivePress:

  • Enable the feature in HivePress > Settings > Vendors and toggle “Allow direct registration”
  • Add required vendor attributes in Vendors > Attributes (at least one required attribute must be set for the vendor profile form to appear)
  • Add the registration link to your menu in Appearance > Menus by creating a custom link to /register-vendor (e.g., with label “Become a Vendor”)

When direct registration is enabled, users can register as vendors directly via the /register-vendor URL without requiring them to add a listing first.

The registration flow includes:

  • Initial login/registration form (standard user signup)

  • Vendor profile completion form (if required vendor attributes are set)

  • Vendor profile becomes published after completion

  • Permalinks must be refreshed in Settings > Permalinks for the /register-vendor URL to work properly

  • Without direct registration enabled, users only become vendors after submitting and getting their first listing approved

  • This is useful if you want vendors to have complete profiles visible on your site even before they list any services

I hope this helps!

PS: in the future, please post questions in English so the topic is beneficial for the entire community. You can use a service like Google Translate, if need be.

Cheers,
