Special registration form was created by fribse2011

Hi Guys

Now that you've helped with the mechanics of managing a trial membership of our site, I would like to create a special registration form, that will trigger another page than the one I've set up with Auto-Actions (systemaction).

I was contemplating using Chronoforms for the registration form, and then create a full trial registration form with everything in it.
The CF v5 (whichis current) does not a have a CB registration utility, but they've suggested this code to enter it into CB:

Code:

data['id'] = $user->id;
$db = JFactory::getDBO();
$query = "
INSERT INTO `#__comprofiler` (`id`, `user_id`)
  VALUES ('{$user->id}', '{$user->id}') ;
";
$db->setQuery($query);
if ( !$db->query() ) {
  JError::raiseWarning(100, $database->getErrorMsg());
}
?>

Is that 'kosher'? Will it work correctly and not break anything?

Best regards
Fribse

Never mind, the FAQ was outdated...

Direct database insert will not work. You need to use CB API. Below is an up to date usage. I still need to update our tutorial or make a new one entirely for latest usage shown below.

Hi Kyle

I finally got some more time to look into this.
The link you refer to, is that a complete user registration, or do I need to register the user via Joomla API AND the CB API?

Best regards
Kenneth

It's a complete registration. You do not need to use Joomla API at all. Another option is to create a Registration action in CB Auto Actions then redirect or POST to its direct action URL. This eliminates having to write PHP at all as you can just substitute in field data from get/post into the action as needed. If Chronoforms lets you specify a custom URL for the form then that's where you'd supply the direct action URL.
