How do you do sign ups?
Right now, I've got users that sign up for my app on a Wordpress site. The app is hosted separately. I need to be able to sign users on the site and then transition them directly to a "create account" sort of page that will then associate the purchase with their account.
How do you do this? I'm open to any sorts of workflows. I've got a few ideas but this is something I'm completely unfamiliar with.
Let's say that I'm using Stripe for payment and my backend is Django (rest framework).
Is there a particular reason you need to let them sign in on the WordPress site? The standard approach would be to just link them to your app subdomain (ie. app.example.com/register)
Lol. Wow. I can't believe I didn't think to just have them register on the app itself but have the sign-up button on my wordpress site just link to the registration page.. And I've been thinking through this problem for a few weeks now.
🤣 We've all been there. Glad to be of service.
We have a similar setting with a landing page in Wordpress and a webapp in Vue with kotlin spring boot backend.
We use https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/oauth2-provider/ such that the user logs-in with the Wordpress page credentials.
This way you get:
Note that you need the paid version of the plug-ins for any meaningful functionallity :-)
They have to sign in then get directed to a create account page? Sounds repetitive.

Do you use memberstack? How do they handle sales tax, it couldn't see anything on their website.
