Hey Everyone,

I'm absolutely new to Pages but also unsure I can build what I have in mind...

I know there is a dedicated registration page (forum-url.com/registration), but unless I've totally missed something, I do not believe there is a method to register and subscribe in one? Seems like an oversize to now allow new users to simply sign up into a premium account for example (assuming "premium" being a subscription that's configured).

My idea is to create a more robust conversion page for registrations. A sort of landing page where we describe our community and the benefits of joining. It would act as both a funnel for new registrations, but also allow a person to to choose a subscription level as they register.

In our case, I created a monthly premium, as well as an annual premium, so along with just basic registration it would be three options. I've attached a screen grab below of something I had built in Wordpress, but after building it, I realized that I don't believe I can have a person register and subscribe at the same time.

Anyhow, wondering if anyone has any advice on this?

Thank you!

Surprised that this isn't a bigger topic. No doubt delivering on a great experience for members is important, but I'm sure all of us would love to grow our communities as well.

Wouldnt this just be subscriptions? Or am I misunderstanding something?

I agree with what superaven was looking for. A front end landing/registration page for persons interested in joining. In our case it is a closed community so we want them to get an overview of the community. I see no place in the ACP to edit any of this.

Do you have the Pages app?

Yes, we're on the Creator Plan at the moment.

You probably want to build some sort of landing page in Pages and then link to the subscription page above. Otherwise, you can put widgets for your various packages right on your landing page via Page builder.

So maybe I didn't describe my situation properly. We have a closed community site. All prospective members have to register and be manually approved.

We want a front-end landing page right at the sign-in/signup window that describes our community for non-members. How can we modify this 'page' to show the benefits of registering. There are no subscriptions. Sorry to be a bother about this. 🤔

Pages allows you to customize the page entirely to what you want as you are building the content so whatever you wish to state on that page, you can add in. Then the links would go to the registration flow.

Thanks for all of the help. I'm close but seem to have another snag. I want to set this welcome page I created as my 'landing' page in the Pages module, which I'll set as my default app. We're on the Creator plan with no databases and I cannot figure how to make my page the default for this folder. The dropdown on the welcome does not have this option. Ideas?

That usually means it IS the default page already.

With custom template code, one can create those “add to cart“ links to start a registration/checkout with a specific product or subscriptions being added automatically. I’ve built such pages for customers. It allows more styling than just the existing subscriptions page and works well for landing pages in this regard. One thing I don’t link about this solution is that allowing guest to start a purchase always creates an invoice in the ACP, even if they don’t actually check out or are just a bot following all links on a page. In that sense, letting members use the regular registration flow can work better.
