Tutor LMS :How to Add Custom Field in Registration Page

If you are running an online course using fantastic LMS plugin -TutorLMS , it may just be your requirement to collect some more information at the time of registration of students for a course. For example, you may want to add a field for Phone Number or College Name etc.

If you desire to add such custom fields in the registration form for a course , it can be done easily by use of TWO code sets.

Code 1 in Function.php of Child Theme

add_filter('tutor_student_registration_required_fields', 'required_phone_no_callback');
if ( ! function_exists('required_phone_no_callback')){
    function required_phone_no_callback($atts){
        $atts['phone_no'] = 'Phone Number field is required';
        return $atts;
    }
}
add_action('user_register', 'add_phone_after_user_register');
add_action('profile_update', 'add_phone_after_user_register');
if ( ! function_exists('add_phone_after_user_register')) {
    function add_phone_after_user_register($user_id){
        if ( ! empty($_POST['phone_no'])) {
            $phone_number = sanitize_text_field($_POST['phone_no']);
            update_user_meta($user_id, '_phone_number', $phone_number);
        }
    }
}

Code 2: Add in Registration.php file

Following code should be inserted in the registration.php file and you should override it from your theme. The location of the file would be- yourtheme/tutor/dashboard/registration.php

<div class="tutor-form-row">

        <div class="tutor-form-col-12">
            <div class="tutor-form-group">
                <label>
                    <?php _e('Phone Number', 'tutor'); ?>
                </label>

                <input type="text" name="phone_no" value="<?php echo tutor_utils()->input_old('phone_no'); ?>" placeholder="<?php _e('Phone Number', 'tutor'); ?>">
            </div>
        </div>

    </div>

How to Add the Code ?

Best way is to first install a plugin called Snippet Code . You need to paste the above code in the Snippet Code or you can also paste directly in function.php. But only if you are using the child theme.
