Registration

Registration is the generation of login and password for further use during user authorization in the system or on the site. Registration of individuals/legal entities from the main page of the website ("Registration" link ) and auto registration of individuals during booking are available in Websky system.

Setting up the registration process

You can set up the registration process by going to menu item "Account management" → "Registration process". You must specify the following settings:

• Close site for unauthorized users - closes access to the site for unauthorized users, only registration, authorization and CMS content pages are available.
• User registration is allowed - setting enabled by default. If it is disabled, registration on the site will not be available to everyone.
• Register type - this setting specifies the acceptable type of account created during registration. Options:
  • All - when registering, you will be able to choose the registration form both for an individual and a legal entity.
  • Only individuals - corresponds to the "User" account type.
  • Only legal entities - corresponds to the "Company" account type (for subagents).
• Allow registration for anonyms - if this option is enabled, anonym will be asked to create an account when filling in the customer information, e-mail will be used as a login (a "Greeting of a new user" will be sent to the specified e-mail).
• Anonyms registration is mandatory - if this option is enabled, the registration will be automatic (by entered e-mail if the password is generated randomly and by entered e-mail and password, if the password is manually entered by the user), the user will have no choice whether to create an account or not.
• Generate a random password when authoregistering - if this option is enabled, the user will receive an e-mail with a randomly generated password.
• Enable e-mail validation check of new user by sending confirmation link - if this option is enabled, an email with a link (a "Registration" email) will be sent to the user's email address specified during the registration process. If the setting is disabled, after registration, the user gets to the site under his login immediately, without confirmation (in this case, the "Greetings of a new user" letter will be sent to the mail).
• Validity of a link for confirmation (in hours) - configurable timeout to confirm registration. If this field is not filled in, it is 24 hours by default. If the confirmation did not happen during this period, then the old unconfirmed registration record will be deleted after trying to register again with the same e-mail.
• Registration benefits and opportunities - this information is displayed in the pop-up window, which opens when the user clicks on the link "Why register?", the link is located in the customer data block.
• Popup registration - registration of individuals and legal entities is carried out in the pop-up window.

Attention! While using Booking Form 2.0, the following settings become irrelevant:

1. The auto-registration password is generated regardless of the setting Generate random password during auto-registration.
2. The setting Forcibly register as anonymous when creating an order does not register anonymous users when creating an order.

Registration Form Settings

You can customize the type of registration form on the "For technical support" page → "Outdated settings" → "Form settings" → "Registration form". This setting allows you to configure the fields to be displayed on the registration form. By default, mandatory fields are: e-mail (login), password for individuals and e-mail address, password for legal entities. Other fields can be displayed (either as mandatory or optional) or hidden. Setting Enter the code from the image helps avoid bots registering in the system. When filling in, the user will be asked to enter the code from the letters and numbers shown in the image.

Setting up registration message templates

Depending on the setting Enable verification of a new user's email address by sending a confirmation link to the email address, the user may receive two types of email informing them of their registration. You can customize the type of these emails in the "System Settings" → "Notifications" → "Email Templates" menu.

• Registration Template - this template is applied if the above setting is active. To fill this template we offer a number of variables, among which there are %CONFIRM_LINK% - the link, which should be used by a new user to confirm the order.

• New User's Welcome Template - applied if the above setting is inactive, and always at auto-registration. As in the first case, in this template you can use the same variables (agency name, client name, login, password), except for the confirmation link.
