register( )

Registers a new site member.

The register() function returns a Promise that resolves to a RegistrationResult object when the member is registered or pending registration.

The specified password must be between 4 and 100 ASCII characters.

See New Members to learn about verifying emails and approving members.

Notes:

  • The APIs in wix-members-frontend are only partially functional when previewing your site. View a published version of your site to see their complete functionality.

  • The member data in the resolved Promise includes custom fields from your site's contacts only if they are added to your site members in your dashboard.

  • When a new member signs up using an email address that's already in your site's Contact List, a notification is displayed and a confirmation email is sent to the new member. To register a member without displaying the notification, use register() from wix-members-backend (this does not suppress the confirmation email).

  • When your site's member signup settings are set to automatic approval, calling register() from wix-members-frontend (in page code) is as secure as calling register() from wix-members-backend (in backend code), unless you are implementing custom site registration using Velo forms. However, when registration is set to manual approval, calling register() from wix-members-backend allows you to build more secure approval flows by keeping tokens hidden from the frontend.
