Usability: Registration + Jomsocial Profile Types was created by getimo

When a new user registers with jfbc he comes to the page where he can define his username and password. We have two profile types (Members/Buisness Owners).

1. Usually the user puts in his username, then password and THEN he gets the selection for the profile type. When this is changed all data inputed before disappears and you have to enter is again.

2. The profile type selection show "Default" without using the dropdown . can this be changed to "Members" (in my case)?

Suggestion:

- Profile Type choosing should be the first input field during registration to avoid frustration and a bad user experience.

In the profiles configuration area of JFBConnect, you can set the default profile that is automatically selected in the drop-down that's provided. Hopefully, setting the default will help, as 50% of the time, it should be right

The other 50 will be business owners who will live re-typing it in.

With that said, we agree the profile switching isn't optimal right now, and is something we'll be looking into improving in an upcoming release. We're still figuring out the best way to implement that so that it works will all the profile plugins without issue.

Good luck,
Alex
