Multiple Registration and Edit Profile Forms integration

Inside Profile Builder Pro, we have 2 modules called Multiple Registration Forms and Multiple Edit Profile Forms that are used to create Custom Registration and Edit Profile Forms with different fields for different user roles.

Inside the settings page, we can choose if we want to enable Form Fields in Columns on our Custom Registration or Edit Profile Forms. You can enable or disable Form Fields in Columns for each individual form. It only works with Profile Builder Pro.

For both the Multiple Registration Forms and Multiple Edit Profile Forms, to enable the Form Fields in Columns functionality you will need to enable it from it’s respective form.
