hook on CB database to chronform ore VS

Hi there,

I have a new challenge😀

People who are visiting oure website can register to the website (it gives them forum acces) but the also can become members of oure club.

Register to the website/forum is handeld thru CB (community builder) Now i would like people who are register to the club, fill out a form and that data is going strait into the CB user database. Down here u see a couple of datafields/collums who are used in the CB user database.

´user_id´ ´firstname´ ´middlename´ ´lastname´ ´location´ ´occupation´ ´interests´ ´company´ ´address´ ´city´ ´state´ ´zipcode´ ´country´ ´phone´ ´fax´.

Can i hook up a form to the CB user database so wen the fill out a form it goes strait into the database? Am I thinking correct that the name of the field in the form should be the same as in the CB database?

So simply thinking, design a form with the fields we need, (fields on the form have the identical name of the fields in de CB user database, connect it too CB user database and put the form online?

Hi Haddewade,

Neither Max nor I are CB users so we don't have much experience here.

I think that the CB Registration Plug-in will do what you need here. Last time I checked it on a test installation it was working OK.

The plug-in will allow you to 'map' form names to CB names so they don't have to be identical - though it may well make life easier if they are.
