    Hey guys! I have a problem. I've created a custom registration form for instructors and published it on this page: https://academy.theopenmic.co/instructor-registration/ The problem is that when my instructors register their first and last name is not saved. Check it out: https://snag.gy/Khp7mL.jpg What am I doing wrong?

    Hi, I checked your website and found out that you have a first name field and a last name field but you have removed the name field from the buddypress user field. Please try adding the default name field again in your user fields and make it the default primary field. Let me know if this helps.

    Thanks! So I need to add a field and call it Name? How do I make it primary? P.S.: I don’t recall deleting the default buddypress Name field, I think I simply renamed it into First Name and this is when it stopped saving data

    Hi, Yes you can rename the first name to Name and then check if its works.

    Hi! Ok, I renamed the field back to name: https://snag.gy/upqGrE.jpg   And I can see this field in the form on this page: https://academy.theopenmic.co/instructor-registration/ Screenshot: https://snag.gy/2vN4OQ.jpg   But WPLMS still doesn't save this field in WordPress: https://snag.gy/sVJZxB.jpg   Really not sure what's going on here.

    Hi, I replicated this issue, the issue is coming due to skip email verification setting. To resolve this you can disable the setting to skip the activation email so that the activation email is sent and the user activates the account then the name will be synced. Or you can simply edit your profile from front end and save the changes, this will also sync the name with the wordpress first name and last name fields.

    Great! I think that was the problem! So strange! Anyway, I have another question: how do I redirect users to a specific page after they clicked the activation link in the email? Is it possible? I couldn't find it anywhere in the settings.

    @DKornyukhov, For this, Go to wp_admin -> WPLMS -> buddypress refer: http://prntscr.com/h4nln9

    Thanks! Is it possible to have redirects based on user role? For example, students get redirected to one page and instructors are redirected to another
