Simplify your Joomla user registration form
Presented at Sydney Joomla User Group 8th November 2016By Tim Plummer
Standard Joomla Registration Form
Need to enter password and email twice
What I wanted
First challenge
How to make it so you only need to enter email and password once
Found two solutions• Via a plugin• Using a template override
Solution 1 - plugin
Solution 1 - plugin
That’s one way to do it
Solution 2 – template override
/components/com_users/views/registration/tmpl/default.php
Copy to
/templates/yourtemplate/html/com_users/registration/default.php
Solution 2 – template override
Add in some javascript
The result so far
Now we only have one password and email field
Now to get rid of username
Using template override option
Getting closer
Now to split name into firstname and lastname
Using User Enhancement Manager (UE Man)
We have all the fields now
But it doesn’t look pretty yet
Time to rewrite the template override
Fields are in right order now
Now apply some CSS styling
Questions?
