What happens after a website user is created?

After a website user is created the Website User Form plugin can behave in the following ways:

  • Log in a website user with the provided credentials.

In this case, new website users are authenticated with the provided credentials and can view, update or delete website user data. For this scenario Login After Successful User Creation has to be enabled.

  • Redirect a website user to the login page.

In this case, new website users are redirected to the page supposedly contains the login form. For this scenario Login After Successful User Creation has to be disabled, Redirect to Login Page has to be enabled and Login Page should be selected.

  • Stay on the current page and display the message Please log in with the provided credentials to view the user account.

This scenario is possible when:

Note

Keep in mind that when the option is hidden its value does not reset and still is stored in a database which can influence the behavior of the plugin in the third scenario.

How to work with images?

By default, TYPO3 is allowed to assign five images to a website user. This has been changed and now it is allowed to assign one image file. For supported file extensions see imagefile_ext. The file size is limited by server configuration.

In the TYPO3 frontend image file size can be set through TypoScript in the setup field of your TypoScript template. See User Image Size.

Important

It is important to know that website user image deletion means only removing references between a website user and an image file. The actual deletion of old image files should be performed based on project needs and requirements.
