How Do I Add a Registration Form to WooCommerce?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 4:16 pm

Adding a registration form to WooCommerce is a great way to collect customer information and grow your mailing list. There are many plugins available that will allow you to create a custom registration form, but we recommend using the WPForms plugin.

WPForms is the most user-friendly form builder plugin for WordPress, and it’s perfect for creating a WooCommerce registration form.

In this article, we’ll show you how to create a WooCommerce registration form using WPForms. We’ll also provide some tips on how to style your form and make it match your store’s design.

Creating Your Registration Form

The first thing you need to do is install and activate the WPForms plugin. For more information, see our step by step guide on how to install a WordPress plugin. Once you’ve installed the plugin, you can create your registration form.

Go to WPForms » Add New in your WordPress admin area to create a new form. You can give your form a name and description, and then choose the Simple Contact Form template from the templates list.

This will add the default fields for a contact form to your form builder. You can leave these fields as-is or remove any that you don’t need for your registration form. To remove a field, simply click on it and then click the trashcan icon.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with code or are not comfortable working with code, we recommend that you hire a developer to help you with this. Adding a registration form to WooCommerce can be tricky and if done incorrectly, it can break your site.

Next, you need to add some fields specifically for collecting customer information. WPForms makes it easy to add custom fields to your forms with its drag and drop interface. To add a new field, simply drag it from the left-hand panel and drop it into place.

There are many different field types you can choose from, but for a registration form you’ll likely want to use the following:

  • Name Field: A name field is used to collect the customer’s first and last name.
  • Email Address Field: An email address field collects the customer’s email address so you can add them to your mailing list.
  • Checkboxes Field: A checkboxes field lets customers select multiple options from a list of choices. This is useful for collecting information like newsletter preferences.

Configuring Your Form Fields

After adding all of the fields you want to include in your WooCommerce registration form, it’s time to configure them. To do that, click on a field to edit its settings.

  • Name Field Settings: For the name field, you can choose whether to display the field as one single line or two separate lines for first and last name. You can also decide whether or not this field is required.

  • >Email Address Field Settings: For the email address field, we recommend leaving the default “Email Address” validation setting enabled so that WPForms will verify that users enter valid email addresses.

>

  • >Checkboxes Field Settings: In the checkboxes field settings, you can add choices by clicking on the “Add Item” button. Then enter each choice in the label field that appears.
