Registration Form

The registration form is the first thing new members interact with. It determines what information you collect up front, how long the sign-up takes, and whether people actually finish it. Get it right and you’ll have a smooth onboarding pipeline. Overload it and people will abandon the form. The golden rule: Only require what you absolutely need to get someone started. You can always collect more data later through Profile Fields.

How to access

Settings → Users & Profiles → Registration Form If User Types are configured, each type gets its own registration form — so you can ask different questions of Scouts vs Leaders, Students vs Professionals.

When user types are configured, this page shows a list of all user types (e.g., “Scout”, “Leader”, “Volunteer”) with each type’s slug, status, and public URL. Each user type can have different fields enabled. Click Configure to open the form builder:

What to require vs what to skip

Field	Require it if…	Skip it if…
Email	Always required (used for login)	—
First Name, Last Name	Almost always	Never — you need a name
Phone	Your org calls members, or for emergency contacts	It’s a casual community
Birthday	You serve minors (age restrictions), or need age data	It feels invasive for your audience
Local Center	You have local branches and members need to be assigned	You don’t have local branches
Address	You mail physical items or need location data	You’re online-only
Profession fields	You’re a professional association	You’re a hobby/social community
Social profiles	You want members to connect outside the platform	They add friction for no payoff

A 3-field registration form (email, first name, last name) will get dramatically higher completion than a 15-field form. Collect the rest through Profile Fields — members fill those out after they’re already invested.

Per-type registration forms

If you’ve created User Types, each type gets its own form. This means you can:

Ask Scouts for their parent’s contact info, but not Leaders
Require Professional members to provide a license number
Keep the Volunteer form short and simple

To set this up:

Create your user types in Settings → Users & Profiles → Roles & User Types
Go back to Registration Form — you’ll see one form per type
Configure each form independently

The “User Type” field on the registration form lets members self-select their type during sign-up. If you don’t include this field, you’ll need to assign types manually or through Adhesion approval.

Customizing the registration page

Choose between two layouts for your registration page:

Layout	Description
Floating	Centered card with a background — clean and focused
Side Panel	Image on the left, form on the right — more visual and branded

Side panel registration page with camping photo on the left and registration form on the right showing email, name, phone, birthday, gender, town, local center, and custom fields

Setting	What it does
Title	Custom title at the top of the registration page. Leave empty for the default.
Text before form	Introductory text above the form. Welcome new members, explain what they’re joining, or set expectations.
Text after form	Text below the form, before submit. Good for terms reminders or next-step info.
Volunteer opt-in text	Text for the volunteer opt-in switch (if volunteer roles are enabled).

Embedding on your website

You can embed the registration form on any external website using an iframe:

Click the Iframe URL button in the form builder to copy the embed link
Add it to your website:

<iframe
  src="https://app.orgo.space/register?iframe=true&workspace=your-slug&lang=en"
  width="100%"
  height="800"
  frameborder="0">
</iframe>

Change the lang parameter for different languages (en, de, fr, es, it, nl, ro, bg, ua).

How registration connects to other features

Feature	How it interacts
User Types	Each type gets its own registration form. Members can self-select if you include the User Type field.
Adhesion	When adhesion is mandatory, registration alone doesn’t grant full access — a separate application process follows.
Waitlist	When the waitlist is active, visitors join a queue instead of registering directly. They register after being invited from the waitlist.
User Statuses	Status After Register determines whether new members are Active immediately or Unapproved (requiring admin approval).
Custom Fields	Custom fields you create appear as additional options in the form builder.
Profile Fields	Fields not on the registration form can be collected post-registration through profiles.

Common scenarios

I changed the registration form but existing members aren't affected

Correct — the registration form only applies to new sign-ups. To collect new information from existing members, add the field to Profile Fields and mark it as required. Members will see a splash screen on their next login.

I want different registration forms for different member types

Create User Types first, then configure each type’s registration form separately. Include the “User Type” field so members can self-select during registration.

Members are abandoning the registration form

Your form is probably too long. Reduce required fields to the minimum (email, name). Move everything else to Profile Fields. You can always collect data later through the splash screen mechanism.

I need to collect a field that doesn't exist in the standard list

Create a Custom Field (Settings → Users & Profiles → Custom Fields), then come back to the registration form builder — your custom field will appear at the bottom of the field list.

Profile Fields — Collect additional data after registration
User Types — Per-type forms and member categories
Custom Fields — Organization-specific data fields
Adhesion — Formal application process (separate from registration)
