Secure zone subscription not working as expected from a web form

May 16, 2012 8:13 PM

We have set up a webform to subscribe people to a secure zone. The people are subscribed to the secure zone on submission of the form but

1. do not get an email about the secure zone

2. are in the secure zone without a user name and password

3. Can reset their passwords, but still do not get a user name so they can't log in.

 

I have attached some screenshots to explain the problem. Has anyone else run into this one?

 

I have also submitted a quesiton about it in Get Satisfaction in case it is a V3 problem.

 

Here is the webform set up to subscribe the person to a secure zone. The webform is inserted on the page as a module

Here is how the person looks in the secure zone - no username or password is set and they do not get an email welcoming them to the secure zone on testing.

If they do a password reset they get an email about it, but still cannot log in as they have a password but still no username. I tried logging in with the email address, and new password, but could not do so.

    Hi,

     

    Thanks for the screencasts. 

     

    The "one month membership" form are you capturing "username and password" form the customer?  What I think is happening is that the form isn't collecting this data initially (by design) so the customer although assigned to a zone doesn't have any login details.  Basically leaving out the username/password in the form will require to admin to either manually create the IDs or to select the "email login ID to subscribers".

    "Click this link to send login details to all subscribers of this Secure Zone. If a subscriber does not have a username and/or password set, one will be generate for them. You can manually add a username and/or password for any customer by accessing their customer record."

     

    Hope this helps!

    -Sidney

    Hi Mary,

     

    Correct the form will need to either include the username/password in the form or the admin will need to manually create via the admin the login details. 

     

    When updating the form you can simply apply to the page.  However based on your screencast I see that you are using the web form editor which means you'll need to restore to default to display the added system field.  The only drawback is that you'll lose your customization work within the form editor section. This is something to consider when needing to add additional fields to the form after its been customized.  Once restored to default please save and the form will update with the new fields. 

     

    If still having trouble produce a test page with the form and I'll investigate further on your behalf. 

     

    Kind regards,

    -Sidney

    Hi Mary,

     

    I just tested this on my site and it works for me. Please paste the URL of the page with that signup form here and I'll have a closer look at this for you.

     

    Cheers,
