The Registration Profile governs what users will see when registering on the site, the contact data that is initially captured and the security during the process. It includes settings for the registration process, such as required fields, security settings, and the overall user experience during registration.
Note: the Registration Profile is focused on capturing the essential details first and optionally collecting additional demographic data in the next step. This approach helps reduce form abandonment and ensures that key contact details are captured early in the process.
Name: give the profile a name (just for internal use)
Terms And Conditions: select the current Terms and Conditions for the user to agree to
Skip Demographic Form: this will eliminate the second screen (Demographic) from the registration process
Skip Demographic Form On Checkout: this will eliminate the second screen (Demographic) only if a user tries to register after they have added an item to their cart and is going through the Checkout process. Note: if Double Confirm is enabled (recommended) you need to enable the (Send Double Confirm > After Registration) option.
Personal Screen Name Creation: choose between the user creating their own Screen Name or Affino generating the screen name from their Nickname or their Firstname and Lastname. Note: the Screen Name is what appears on the users’ My Account URL (i.e. affino.com/markuska).
Allow Personal Screen Name Change: enable this setting so that users can create their own screen name
Default Country: Select the default country for the registration. If this is selected then the country selector will no longer be displayed, instead only the counties from the country will be on the County menu.
Depending on settings, the end result will be reflected on the Registration form.
Welcome Channel
The Welcome Channel option determines the Channel and Zone where users are redirected to after Registration.
Note: if (Zone > All) is selected, the Welcome channel will be used on all other zones that do not have a specified zone selected. If a user registers during their eCommerce user journey, they will be returned to the next checkout step.
