Caption for Completion Button: What is written in the button at the bottom of the registration wizard that will complete it.
Child Registration: This is help text that can be shown on the registration wizard that aides a parent registering their child for membership. For example, if asking for Date of Birth, the help text will remind the user that it must be the child’s date of birth that is entered. You can choose to turn these hints on by default and/or set it so the user can turn them on and off while using the registration wizard.
The introduction appears at the top of the registration wizard and can be used to explain how to fill out the form or give any other information. It is recommended to keep this description brief as users are less likely to read it the longer it is. If your registration wizard has more than one page, the introduction will appear at the top of EACH page.
To add an element to the introduction, press the “Add Element” button on the bottom right. Below is an example of adding an Alert Message to the introduction.
Type: This defines what the colour and the alert will be which relates to the type of message the alert is for.

Text: The main body of text that will appear in the alert.
OK: Confirm the details for the alert message and go back to the registration wizard.
Pages: The wizard can be split in to multiple pages if you want it to be. Keeping it on one page is recommended as it is less intimidating for users to fill out.
Sections: Sections help break down the page so that certain inputs can be grouped together. This can make the registration easier to follow. This can be used alongside pages to break up the information within the registration wizard.
Title: The title of the Section that appears at the top.
Icon: The Icon that appears next to the title.
OK: Confirm choices and go back to the registration wizard to add elements to the section.
Elements: Choose different elements to include in the registration to find out the appropriate information from the user. For most elements, you will be able to choose if it is “Optional”, “Required”, or “Hidden” as well as write help text for both everyone and for when registering on behalf of children.
Username & Password: Set a username and password to log into the website. The username can be set to be the user’s email address, but this can cause an issue as usernames must be unique so if signing up parents and children, they can’t use the same email address for several accounts. Passwords can also be set to have to be entered twice and to not allow weak passwords.
If the registration wizard is set to default, then this element is mandatory, and you will be unable to save the wizard until you have included it.

Select Existing User: This can be used for users to look up an existing member, such as to say who recommended them. This option cannot be used if the wizard is public, as they will not have access to the list of current users.
Access Code: This requires the user to enter a code in order to complete the registration. For example, if you only wanted to offer membership to those who attended an open day or trials, they can be given the code so that they are able to sign up when they get home, but not someone who didn’t attend so didn’t get the code.
Alert Message: A message that appears within the wizard to give information to the user. They can be coloured depending on the purpose of the message being displayed. An example of this can be seen in Step 8, when added to the introduction.
Formatted Text: A block of text, often instructions or further information for the user. This uses markdown for any formatting. There is a link when you add this element to help you with markdown syntax.
Registration Summary: This summarises all the answers given in the registration wizard. This is a good addition to the bottom/ last page of the wizard so that the user can double-check the information they have entered is correct before completing the registration.
In this example, for a registration wizard for signing junior members up, you can see each of the elements that I have used and how I broke them down into suitably named sections to break the form up and make it easier to read and follow.
Once there is more than one section, page, or element on a registration wizard, they can be moved around to reorder them. You press the button below on the right hand side of the screen
Below is an example of how to reorder sections.
Then use the 3 lines to drag each section into the order desired. Press OK to confirm the new order or Cancel to revert back to the previous order.
At any point during the creation of a new registration wizard, you can click “Preview” at the bottom of the screen to see what it would look like to the user. Once you have completed the creation of the wizard, you can save it by clicking “Save Changes” at the bottom of the screen. This will raise any issues that will not allow you to save the wizard, which you will be able to correct before saving.
Repeat these steps to create as many registration wizards as necessary, however it is best to keep to as few as possible, unless each membership category has vastly different information requiring to be collected.
