Our Signup Shortcode Add On allows you to embed a membership signup form anywhere on your site. This is great for landing pages, or for sites with one free membership level that want to override the default process.
How it Works
The Add On is used by by placing the [pmpro_signup] shortcode in your posts, pages or widgets. It will display a membership checkout module based on the shortcode’s specified parameters.
[pmpro_signup submit_button="Unlock this Post Now!" level="1" login="1" redirect="referrer"]

Customizing the Form Appearance
The design of the form screenshot below is part of the Memberlite theme. If you’d like support customizing the display of the signup block or integrating it into your theme, please open a ticket in our member support area.
Note: If the level is free, the account will be created and the member will be automatically redirected to the specified redirect page. If the level is not free, the user will be taken to the membership checkout page to enter billing information.
when i used paid membership plugin .after installation my site is not working .even it block my URL .after sitting when i refersh my website page .there is showing no internet while my other sites are working properly .
We would need more information to help identify what is causing this. If you are still having the issue, please enable WP_DEBUG by following this guide: https://www.paidmembershipspro.com/how-to-enable-debugging-on-you-your-wordpress-site/.
Added the short code provided above. Please see screenshot: https://paste.pics/5LW5A
There is a weird “Log-In” text at the button of the page. I believe that’s a link if the user already has an account. Is there a way to put that at the bottom of the form as “Already have an account? Click here to log-in.”
The signup module of the Register Helper Add On is no longer supported. The new Signup Shortcode Add On has extended shortcode attributes to hide this login link. See: https://www.paidmembershipspro.com/add-ons/pmpro-signup-shortcode/
You can then insert your custom message related to login right below the shortcode in your editor.
Hi Kim,
I see you said the Register Helper add on is no longer supported. Should I delete it? When I go to the documentation page there is no message indicating it’s deprecated: https://www.paidmembershipspro.com/add-ons/pmpro-register-helper-add-checkout-and-profile-fields/
Thanks, Ted.
Hi Ted,
The “signup module” for Register helper is no longer supported but Register Helper in itself is still very much being used. Deleting the Add On could very well remove any custom fields you have on your site so be wary.
“which embeds a membership signup form anywhere on your site”
That doesn’t seem correct. It just puts a button on the page which redirects back to the normal registration page. Is it possible to use that shortcode to embed the actual form on a custom page – and include the payment forms?
You can also add the [pmpro_checkout] shortcode anywhere you want to if you want the entire checkout form. In that case, it will submit to the same page.
Some interesting things might happen if you put the entire checkout page into a sidebar (hard to account for compatibility with whatever else is on the page).
The signup shortcode is meant for streamlined sign ups to gather free users and emails and in some cases to act as a kind of 2 part sign up.
Hope this helps.
Yes i have billing address and T&Cs required for paid members in the checkout stage but this isn’t needed on free level. I asked in support, however they needed FTP but I don’t have access as i have web developers who set up the site.
[pmpro_signup button="Unlock this Post Now!" level="1" login="1" redirect="referrer"]. I use this code you have supplied for a free membership level.
you state “If the level is free, submitting the form will register the user and redirect them to the Membership Confirmation page.” however, the shirt code redirects to my checkout page, how can i chafe it to redirect to the confirmation page.
thanks
Maybe you have other required fields for your checkout page? We can get more details and help further in the support forums.
“Great for sites with one free level who want to override the default process” — That’s a great headline but unfortunately it doesn’t appear to be very accurate.
I added the “one step form” to my site. When I fill it out, I am redirected and made to manually select the only membership level available (free). Then I’m redirected to a full form to fill out yet again — and my username and password that I’ve already selected aren’t even pre-filled for me so now I have to type it all in again.
What exactly are we overriding here? I’m asking because at first glance, we’ve actually added ANOTHER step to the registration process instead of “overriding the default process”.
This is what “overriding the default process” meant to me: I expected to have a new form that once “submit” was clicked, a new user was registered at my “free level” (my only level) and they would have bypassed the three-click-and-fill-out-a-form Registration process.
Clearly I’m missing something. Please explain what benefit this Register Helper Add On is supposed to provide? As I said, all I can see is it’s adding more work for the user and not less.
Thanks
Sorry this isn’t working for you. I’ll try to test the default setup again, but in the meantime are you using other PMPro addons or otherwise requiring other fields at checkout? If you post to the member forums, I can get more information about your setup and try to help you out.
This short code does not work for me, aide pasting the code is there anything else that I need to do? Thanks
Do you have the Register Helper addon plugin activated?
