What’s new in Pie Register Geolocation 1.4.5
What it does
When people register on your site, you often know little about where they are. That makes it harder to tailor content, offer localized services or notice registrations that look out of place. This add-on works with your existing Pie Register setup and detects a user's geographic location during registration, so the information arrives with the sign-up itself and you don't have to ask for it later.
You choose which location fields appear on your forms and tailor them to collect only what you need. Geo-IP based auto-fill can pre-fill details such as country or city, and conditional logic lets you show or hide location fields based on user input or other conditions. Once data comes in, you can segment users by geography, review location reports and use the information to flag suspicious or fraudulent registrations.
Best for
- Sites already using Pie Register for user registration
- Businesses offering localized content or services
- Site owners screening for suspicious sign-ups
