I reported a problem with JomSocial registration a few days ago and still have not been able to resolve the problem. I reinstalled both the template and JomSocial and now when I click the "JOIN US NOW, IT"S FREE!" button, nothing happens other than a ≠≠ is added to the url like this:

http://www.signature-tunes.com/member-area#

The JomSocial support team is saying that it is a template problem (Music State) which I believe must be the case as when the template is changed to the default Joomla! Beez the registration page can be reach.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

So the register form is working on Beez? Which JomSocial version do you use?

The version of JomSocial that I am using is the very latest version - 3.0.5.3 Pro.

When you look at the source code this is what you see that there is no link to the registration form:

Code: Select all
<div class="cGuest">
   <div>
          <p>Come and join our community. Expand your network and get to know new people!</p>
         
          <a href="#"> Join us now, it's free! </a>
     </div>
</div>


The registration form is there as you can see here:

Yes, I will try! This is just an example.

First this is the url to my registration page: http://www.signature-tunes.com/member-area/register

I took this part of it:

/member-area/register

and then went to JomSocial templates in my site's admin area. In there find the template that you have set as the default template and open it as if to modify the settings. You will see a drop-down menu called "select a file". Choose the frontpage.guests.php file.

When this page is open look for the following code (If you are having the same problem that I had):

Code: Select all
<div class="cGuest">
<div>
          <p><?php echo JText::_('COM_COMMUNITY_HERO_PARAGRAPH'); ?></p>
          <a href="#"> <?php echo JText::_('COM_COMMUNITY_JOIN_US_NOW'); ?> </a>
     </div>
</div>


and replace the # with that part of your registration url that will get you to the registration form like this:

Code: Select all
<div class="cGuest">
<div>
          <p><?php echo JText::_('COM_COMMUNITY_HERO_PARAGRAPH'); ?></p>
          <a href="/member-area/register"> <?php echo JText::_('COM_COMMUNITY_JOIN_US_NOW'); ?> </a>
     </div>
</div>


I hope the attached image will help as well:

Let me know if you need any further assistance with this. Cheers!

To clarify, you've modified core JomSocial file yes? If yes this is not template issue, probably JomSocial problem.
