Product Description
Profile Types Splitter Basic

This mod allows you to have completely different profile types on your site. Each profile type can have it's own field set. You can easily control from admin panel which profile fields should be shared among all profile types and which fields should be exclusive only for a particular profile type.

Let's see it's main features on screenshots. I've made a test system with two profile types Policeman and Criminal. :)

On the first screenshot you can see profile types management tool, where you can create new profile types, delete them, or mark them active/inactive (member can't join as an inactive type, but all members who joined when it was active are still have this type). Also there is a migration tool here, which allows you to set up a particular profile type for some of existing membership levels (it's primarily designed for those who earlier was differentiating profile types by membership levels).

On the second screenshot you can see common dolphin profile field edit page where now you are able to choose to whom this field is relevant. Thus here you can define specific field set for each profile type.

On the third screenshot you can see the first page of join form. I must notice that join form is fully AJAXed. It's mean that no more page reloads - all works smoothly. After user selects desired profile type and clicked the arrow it brings him to the join steps (no restrictions, you can use standard dolphin join form builder to define on which step particular field should appear). And it show to a member the complete number of join steps. He is able to easily navigate through the steps forward and backward by using arrows. Moreover this join form has integrated AJAX checking of NickName and Email, i.e. when member has entered his NickName or Email and proceeded to other fields - it's in background checks Nickname, Email availability and correctness and if something wrong - then shows an error message right under wrongly entered field.

On the fourth and fifth screenshots you can see the difference in join step 3 between joining process as a Policeman and joining as a Criminal. Notice that there is completely different field set on that step between these profile types.

On the sixth and seventh screenshots you can see the difference between fields displaying on the profile view page. And again each rofile type has it's own field set and as you can see some of common filed are shared among them, like Country and City.

Another feature of this mod - is the ability to control page blocks also. You as an admin can control which page block on profile view page is relevant to a particular profile type and also on all pages which have appropriate Page Builder in admin panel you can control which page block should be visible to which profile type. As an example, if decided that Criminal profiles shouldn't be able to see and use Rate Profile block - and I hide it from the Criminals just by a one click in the admin panel (see screenshot 8). But this block is still appears on Criminal's profiles for Policemen.

You can see this mod in action on a live project at http://www.hyefinder.com

Although in the example above there was only 2 profile types - this mod allows you to create up to 30 profile types.

Notice:
This mod includes installation service.
Since this mod alters many aspects of dolphin script - it can be incompatible with your dolphin if you already have some mods installed. Or it can require adapting to all mods you have already. Thus if you have already some mods installed (mods for join page, page blocks and profile fields in particular) then before buying this mod contact me for me to be able to check whether it's compatible with your script.
Also be careful with altering field DateOfBirth, since if you'll hide it for a particular profile type - then this profile type wouldn't show at all on browse members page, because browse members page relies on age.

UPDATE:
This mod now compatible with Dolphin 6.1.X versions. A few notes about version for 6.1.X.
This version didn't use custom AJAXed join page now and wouldn't allow new users to navigate through join steps. Instead when user chooses his desired profile type - page reloads with profile fields relevant to selected profile type. It is also doesn't checks NickName and Email availability during typing, because new dolphin 6.1.X join form already uses AJAX fields checking. This fact has an advantage - join page is not hardly customized and this means that many other mods for join page (like picture upload at join, for example) would be compatible with it.
Another addition is that now you also able to control navigation menu items visibility for different profile types. For example you can hide Video menu item from any particular profile type.

Just what I was looking for. I couldn't have done my site the way it should have been without it. A real lifesaver. Also very friendly service. The best experience I have had with a seller yet!
