I really just need when someone clicks the Submit a Pic or Join Now buttons on my main page, it takes them through a registration process with my site. Nothing fancy. Right now, the buttons take you to a contact form. So I'm getting 'registrations' but I need them to be real and as easy as possible for people to register. Not contact forms like I have now. I know there are plugins for this, I've experimented, it's just I'm trying to make the process work with those two buttons on my cover page and I'm not a coder, so no good at integrating this. I know I don't need Buddypress for this, but will be going with Buddypress when I pick a developer to hook it up for me. But right now, just need some help making those buttons actually work, rather than directing to a contact form page. Thanks so much. I can be reached here, and the site in question is @FavTrip
I'd like them to have a profile page which is why I'll go with Buddypress in the end. But right now, I just need those two buttons to work so I can do away with the contact forms.
I figured it out. ;-) Now I just need to figure out directing the registered user to a profile page, and not the WP Dashboard. Anyone? Thanks!
