Login Page should allow user to create an account
complete
George Kao
When a user goes to the Login page... what if they don't have an account yet? It's totally unclear how they would create an account.
Check out the login page of Facebook or LinkedIn -- using an incognito window -- and notice that they allow a create account option as well. I wish to see this with Simplero :)

Will get this done. Simple.

Calvin Correli Seems like you kind of fixed this, but we need you guys to relink the software. I was able to fix by adding the URL string to the existing link, easy fix: &allow_signup=true So for instance courses if free allow you to view but it you want to favorite or add a note, you are linking to the "normal" login without this login true string and people click to do something and deadend to a pge where they cannot signup. Why not link to the version that allows signup? Why not just change the link or is it more complex?

Another use case for me is that I offer free courses and free resources to people. Once they are logged in, I can sell them more stuff based on their tags...

The reason we don't have it generally is because so far I haven't seen a situation where we'd need it.
The reason you'd get a login is so you can access something, and the login is created when you get access.
What's your use-case where someone would want to create a login directly?
There's probably a good reason why.

Calvin Correli thanks for your reply! I do often use webpages that are ONLY available to contacts with a certain tag. And tags need them to log in, right?
For example if I invite people to an exploratory call only they can see the scheduler.
Or if I give a bonus to my email list for doing something (even if they haven't bought anything yet), they'll get tagged for clicking a link and be able to access that private resource.

Calvin Correli Here's one: I have some courses that are available to the public. But occasionally, someone wants a certificate for completing the course. In order to earn the certificate, they have to be logged in. But I don't want to require login for everyone. It would be helpful to have a "create an account to save your progress in this course" link.

Ali Ryder Noted. We'll get it done shortly. Should be simple.
