    Has anyone created an account number for a new user during the sign up process? Added a field to the user table and like to update it with a generated account number at the time a new user signs up for service. I am digging around, just not sure where the code should be placed. Create a new signup page and add the code there?

    You help is greatly appreciated.

    Hello Roy,

    1. First of all you need to add new SQL field to user profile. You can do it from admin interface at
    aMember CP -> Configuration -> Setup/Configuration -> Add User Fields

    2. Then you can use the following code in site.php to generate this number:
    http://www.amember.com/docs/Site.php_file

    I assume you call this field 'idnum':
    PHP:
    Am_Di::getInstance()->hook->add(Am_Event::USER_BEFORE_INSERT, function(Am_Event $e) {
       
    $e->getUser()->idnum uniqid();
    });
    3. You can add this field to user profile form and within configuration of these field make it readonly:
    aMember CP -> Configuration -> Forms Editor

    4. Also you can use Widget plugin (free) and add this number to user dashboard. Within content of widget you can use
    user specific placeholders ie.:
    HTML:
    <p>Your Account Number: %user.idnum%</p>
