Community Builder Registration at Cart

I have been searching the Forum and I am not sure of a clear answer to this question.

CB asks that you disable "Allow User Registration" the Joomla user manager... However, with this disabled hikashop displays "Registration not allowed" in the log-in/registration area. In a perfect world, I would like the registration form from community builder integrated.

However, my concern now is for a customer to be able to register. Is there any way to do this without enabling the Joomla user manager?

Could I add in the CB registration as a step after cart display then proceed to the log-in in HikaShop? Could that work?

This was CB's response... Any input would be great!!!

I'm not sure if HikaShop has a CB integration or not. If they do they should check CBs registration settings and use CB API to create a user. If not then they're creating users likely through Joomla API and it will not push to CB. We do join _users, but they will not have a _comprofiler row and will be out of sync (unconfirmed and unapproved).

My question is: What will happen?
You'll have a backdoor registration inviting spammers to slam your site.

You can install our free CB Core Redirect to ensure core Joomla user object can not be accessed (it'll redirect to CB as needed) to avoid this, but I don't know if it'll negatively impact HikaShop.

I figured out a solution... I added in a echo link to the CB Registration in the place of "REGISTRATION_NOT_ALLOWED" in Display>views>checkout/login

Now I just need to wrap my head around a redirect back to the cart after the registration has been confirmed.

HikaShop is integrated with CB for registration. Simply turn on the registration in Joomla and HikaShop's registration form will add the user also in CB during the registration. There is even a plugin to redirect Joomla's registration page to HikaShop's so that your users always see the same registration form.

The only thing I am seeing loading into CB is a name and password. And that is with the Jommla User set to yes which means it is going through Joomla.

Would you be able to send a link that describes the integration between HikaShop and Community builder registration. I looked but I was unable to find anything. That was I can get my head around it better.

Yes the user is created in joomla but it is aslo added in CB.
There is no link describing the integration as there is not much to say. It's automatic.
If you're saying that CB doesn't get the address of the user in the CB fields, that's normal as there is no integration for that. I was only talking about the registration/login.

Will leaving the core Joomla user manager set to yes leave open a backdoor registration inviting spammers?

Also, if it does like CB said it will. Has the CB Core Redirect install been tested?

I don't see why you would have a backdoor using the joomla registration or HikaShop's registration, regardless of whether CB is installed or not on the website.
We don't use CB on our website and use HikaShop's registration and it works just fine, we don't have a backdoor for spammers as far as I know.

I've never heard of CB Core Redirect and never used it, so I don't know if it will work or not with HikaShop. So far no one reported that it didn't, that's all I can say.

Can you confirm that this should still be working in 3.0.1 as you mentioned here?

We just upgraded to 3.0.1 and now people who register in the checkout process are NOT being added to Community Builder (CB). They are only being added to the core Joomla user area.

We do have the core Joomla user system set to allow registration.

We are running the latest version of CB and Joomla 3.7.1.

Is there some new settings (or plugin) somewhere in HS 3.x that needs to be set properly?

Hi,

It should still be working.
As we've redone the whole checkout system, the code has changed, so something might have broken.
Also, we didn't test the new checkout with CB so it might still be a real problem.

The function that is being used in the "register" function in the file administrator/components/com_hikashop/classes/user.php
In there, near the end of the function, the function addAndConfirmUserInCB is called and that's this function which adds the user to CB.
So the first thing would be to add some logging in there ( with JLog for example: docs.joomla.org/Using_JLog ) to see if that addAndConfirmUserInCB function is being called.

Did you get a response to this question? I use Community Builder for my member registration and was hoping to just let my current members login to purchase items on my website, not have to re-register or register as a guest. Any suggestions or resources would be appreciated. Also, I have installed the CB plugin and will experiment with that. Thanks, Tim
