User Registration
Custom registration forms for any WordPress site — no WooCommerce required.
WordPress's built-in registration form is a single username and password field. TWDH User Registration transforms it into a complete member acquisition system — without requiring WooCommerce, a separate page builder, or five stitched-together plugins.
Add any custom field: text, email, phone, dropdown, checkbox, radio, textarea, file upload, or date picker. Mark fields required, reorder them with drag-and-drop, and they appear instantly on the registration form and the user profile edit page. The [twdh_register] shortcode lets you drop a fully styled, validated form anywhere on your site.
For communities and platforms that need to vet applicants, the manual approval workflow holds new registrations in pending until an admin reviews them. Approved and rejected users receive automatic email notifications built with a smart tag system ({first_name}, {site_name}, {login_url}, and more).
The Pro tier adds everything a full membership site needs: multi-step forms with animated step indicators, conditional field logic, membership plans with Stripe Payment Element and PayPal Orders API, content restriction and drip by plan, invite codes, a searchable member directory, two-factor authentication via OTP email and magic links, GDPR consent with audit trail, discount codes, role-based redirects, and HMAC-signed outbound webhooks for every key event.

Up and running in minutes
Three simple steps to get real results — no experience needed.
Install and activate
Upload via the WordPress plugin installer and activate. A User Registration menu item appears under Settings immediately — no setup wizard, no API keys required for free features.
Add your custom fields
Open the Custom Fields tab and click Add Field. Pick a field type, label it, mark it required, and drag to reorder. Fields appear on the registration form and the profile edit page instantly. Drop [twdh_register] on any page.
Configure approval, emails, and Pro features
Set approval mode to Manual to hold new registrations for review. Customize email templates with smart tags. Enter your license key to unlock memberships, multi-step forms, Stripe/PayPal billing, and the full Pro feature set.
Built for professionals
No bloat. No surprises. Just the features that matter.
Built on native WordPress hooks
Every field, validation, and save operation uses standard WordPress actions and filters. No WooCommerce dependency, no database table hacks, no compatibility surprises.
Works with any theme
The [twdh_register] and [twdh_account] shortcodes render unstyled semantic HTML with BEM classes. Style with the included CSS or override with your theme's stylesheet.
No WooCommerce required
This plugin is 100% standalone. If you run WooCommerce that's fine — if you don't, everything still works. Memberships, payments, and billing are built in directly.
Everything it can do
A complete breakdown of every capability — free and Pro.
Unlimited Custom Registration Fields
Add any number of custom fields to the WordPress registration form: text, email, phone, number, dropdown, checkbox, radio, textarea, file upload, and date picker. Fields are drag-and-drop reorderable and appear automatically on both the registration form and the user profile edit page.
Manual Approval Workflow
Enable Manual approval mode and new registrations are held in Pending status until you review them. Approve or reject from the WP Admin user list. Approved and rejected users receive automatic email notifications with smart tag templating.
Smart Tag Email Templates
All notification emails use a smart tag system: {first_name}, {last_name}, {user_login}, {site_name}, {login_url}, and more. Customize your welcome email, approval email, and rejection email with personalized, dynamic content.
Membership Plans with Stripe & PayPal (Pro)
Pro includes a complete membership billing system — no WooCommerce required. Create membership plans as a custom post type, set monthly or annual pricing, and accept payments via Stripe Payment Element or PayPal Orders API.
Content Restriction & Drip (Pro)
Pro lets you restrict any page, post, or custom post type to specific membership plans. Content drip releases restricted content on a schedule — X days after signup or on a fixed calendar date. Essential for course and coaching sites.
Member Directory (Pro)
Pro includes a [twdh_directory] shortcode that renders a searchable, filterable member directory with profile cards. Members can have public profiles with their custom field data, photo, and bio displayed to other logged-in members.
Made for web professionals
Built by a real web design agency — for everyone who needs a professional solution without the bloat.
Membership and community sites
Sell membership plans, restrict content by tier, drip content post-signup, and build a searchable member directory with profile cards — all without WooCommerce.
Course and education platforms
Gate course content behind a membership plan, drip lessons after enrollment, collect student information on registration, and issue invite codes for cohort enrollment.
B2B and trade platforms
Vet applicants before granting access. Collect business name, ABN/EIN, trade references, and role on signup — then approve or reject from the WordPress admin.

What people are saying
"Finally a registration plugin that doesn't require WooCommerce. I needed custom fields, manual approval, and a member directory on a non-ecommerce site. This does it all cleanly and the code is solid."
Marcus T.
Community Platform Developer
"I use the invite codes to control who joins my cohorts and content drip to release lessons weekly. The Stripe integration works first try and the webhooks fire reliably to my Zapier zap."
Priya N.
Online Course Creator
"Setup took under 10 minutes. Added five custom fields, turned on manual approval, and set up a welcome email with smart tags. Everything just works — no conflicts with my theme."
