=== Plugin Name === Contributors: justinticktock, keycapability Tags: signup, register, user, mu, multisite, network, multi-network, login Requires at least: 4.7 Tested up to: 4.7.3 Stable tag: 1.5 License: GPLv2 or later License URI: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html Allow the public to register user accounts on Subsites within a Network (MultiSite) installation. == Description == The 'Network Subsite User Registration' (NSUR) plugin removes the WordPress Multisite restriction that registration is on the Network main site, subsite Administrators can now allow user registration for their site only. WordPress Network (Multisite) installations by default only allow user registration for the whole Network, e.g. users can only register for the main site and not the other sites on the network. The ‘Network Subsite User Registration’ plugin allows local admins of sub-sites within the Network/Multisite the ability to enable user registration themselves for their site. @Developers - If you want to use your own template you can override the template used for the ../local-signup page by creating a template with the file 'page-signup.php' and add this to either the parent or child theme. = Plugin site = [https://justinandco.com/plugins/network-subsite-user-registration/](https://justinandco.com/plugins/network-subsite-user-registration/) = GitHub - Development = [https://github.com/justinticktock/network-subsite-user-registration](https://github.com/justinticktock/network-subsite-user-registration) == Installation == 1.

A1) This plugin will give the user the experience of remaining on the subsite that they are registering on. The acitvation of the new user does continue to be on the Network but this happens behind the scenes all they will see is they belong to the subsite. If you register on the site at <a href="https://justinandco.com/plugins/">justinandco.com/plugins/</a> you'll see it in action you will be given access as subscriber to the plugins subsite only and not to the Nework Main site "justinandco.com. Q2) Currently standard multisite functionality when a user attempts to register an account on a second subsite they get a message saying that the username and email already exists even though in their minds they have never been to this site before. Can the plugin handle registration on a second, third... subsite? A2) Yes the plugin handles registration on more than one sub-site within the same network. So for the case where a user has already registered on subsite1 of the Network and they register on subsite2 with the same username and a different email address they will see the message "<em>Sorry, that username already exists!</em>". This is since the plugin uses the email address as the uniqueness and proof that it's the same user. However, if they register on subsite2 using the same email address for registration then they are automatically given an account on subsite2. Also once registered all subsites that they belong to on the Network are then listed on the screen (e.g. subsite1, subsite2 ...etc) as confirmation that they are now also a 'subscriber' on subsite2. Note: If the username given for subsite2 registration is different from their subsite1 username then the username provided is ignored so that subsite1 and subsite2 have the same original username (which is associated with the email address already). == Screenshots == 1. The Settings Screen for user registration. 2. An example of Network Settings allowing users to be registered 3. An example of Network Settings allowing both sites and users to be registered. == Changelog == Change log is maintained on [the plugin website]( https://justinandco.com/plugins/network-subsite-user-registration-change-log/ "Network Subsite User Registration Change Log" ) == Upgrade Notice ==
