Hide Registration Form Fields for Free Level

i have a form where i want the new user signing up to only see the Name and Email fields. The other fields I want hidden until after they have successfully registered. Their profile will have a lot if information and I don’t want to discurage them from signing up.

How do i hide custom form fields in the registration form and allow them to be seen in the profile update form?

i only want registered users to be able to see the hidden fields.

i tried to set the Applicable Membership Levels: * to 0,1,2,3,4

But it has no effect on the form to non-registered users that are just signing up when the Levels include the “0” … but when the “0” is removed it hides the field.

How it should work is that if a new person has no level, then the fields should be hidden, even those designated for level “0”

UPDATE: I notice that this Applicable Membership Levels: doesn’t work correctly if the visitor doesn’t have any “level”… when i log in as administrator then the fields hide correctly since my user level has been set to “administrator” and it is not any of the permitted levels.

Hi Kristopher,

If you want to hide the fields during registration, then you need to set the Allow Profile Edits option for the field to “Yes ( editable after registration / invisible during registration )“.

Thanks, that’s what I needed.

Glad to help! :)
