Tareq Hasan Is it possible to let user to choose whether they want to be a subscriber or contributor? For example if they select to be Contributor, they can view other pages or post. thanks

It doesn’t matter what user’s role is you can allow them to post by using this plugin.

You may consider to use 2 registration forms and assign users roles accordingly.

Thanks. But if I logged in as subscriber already, then go to contributor registration page(created with WPUF). It said “You are already logged in!”. Why is that?

In a registration form (e.g. for contributor), there is a field called “New User Role”. Which role should I select? subscriber or contributor?

It says “You are already logged in!” because you don’t want to register the user again as he is already registered.

“New User Role” is the user role that a newly registered user will have. If it’s set to “Author”, the new registered user will have a Author role.

ok, Is it possible that when a subscriber is already logged in. Then the user would like to upgrade to Contributor, so the user can tick a check box and then submit to become a contributor?

thanks
