Registration pages are perhaps the most confusing aspect of the Password Protector v6.2 system, although they truly should not be! This guide was designed to give users additional information on creating properly functioning registration pages.

Controlling Registration Parameters
The absolute best way to control registration parameters is using form tags. The proper format for the required form tags have been listed below:

<input type="hidden" name="regtype" value="Type 3">

The "regtype" field controls the registration type that will be used for the current registration page. The available options for this tag are "Type 1", "Type 2", and "Type 3". Please note that they must be entered into the tags "value" exactly as they appear above.

<input type="hidden" name="area" value="ExAcT NaMe oF ArEa">

The "area" field controls with which area the current registration page will be associated. This means that users registering through this page will be assigned to the denoted protected area. Please remember that the value is case sensitive.

<input type="hidden" name="expires" value="5">
<input type="hidden" name="expireunits" value="Year">

The above two fields work together to establish the user-account's expiration date. The "expires" field is the numerical value of the "expireunits" field’s value. Thus, in the above example, the account will expire in 5 Years. However, notice that the value "expireunits" is set to "Year" and not "Years": this is because the program requires that all "expireunits" values be in singular format. Do not place it in plural format or the feature will not function.

Other available options are "Month" and months and "Day" for days. If you wish to not have this account expire, set the "expires" field to "Lifetime" and leave the "expireunits" field blank.

Using the "Display "Step 2" newsletter selection during registration?" option
What you will need to remember about using this option is that you will need to include the above displayed "area" form tag within all registration pages for proper functionality.
