How do I enable this functionality?

Gravity Perks Better User Activation After the GP Better User Activation perk is installed, you’ll want to start by selecting a Custom Activation page.

This is as simple as visiting the Perk Settings Page under Forms > Perks. Choose any existing page from the drop-down titled “Custom user activation page” to serve as the new Custom Activation page.

Prefer to make a new page? Simply Add New Page from the WP admin and leave the content area blank. Choose the slug that you want visitors to land on during activation, such as “/activate”.

Then return to the Gravity Perks Better User Activation Settings and select the new page from the drop-down menu “Custom user activation page”.

After you select a Custom Activation Page, the plugin will already begin to work, sending any new user activations to the selected page. To edit the content of the page, simply visit the page in edit mode.

You’ll notice the normal content editor has been replaced by a set of tabs with four different views. Edit the default content as desired.

Feature Details

Customize Activation Views

There are four different “Gravity Perks Better User Activation” that are used to display content depending on the result of the attempted user activation.

With Gravity Perks Better User Activation, you’re able to customize each of these views to cover all the different screens the user may see when activating.

This content is edited on the Custom Activation Page, which provides the tabs in the screenshot below.

If you don’t see these tabs, check that you’ve set the page properly under the Perk Settings option “Custom user activation page” detailed under the documentation section How do I enable this functionality?

Activation Success

Content shown to the user when they successfully activate. The default content includes the users login information and link to the login page. Not shown if you redirect the user to a Custom Success Redirection page.

User Already Active

Sometimes users are so eager to activate, they press the activate link over and over again like chimpanzees demanding grapes from their handlers. When this happens, the User Already Active content will be displayed.

No Key

Key is missing entirely from the activation link. This typically occurs when the user copies and pastes the link or if the link is broken in the email layout.

GP Better User Activation displays the Activation Key Form so users can enter their key manually in this situation.

Other Error

Presented when invalid keys or any other errors that might occur block the user activation. Gravity Perks Better User Activation provides a merge tag {gpbua:error_message} to display the error message to the user.
