Description

The Signup Terms Of Service (TOS) adds a mandatory checkbox with a link to the terms of use on the WordPress signup screen, blocking registration until the user confirms they have read it. Anyone who manages a multisite network or a site with open registration gets a formal record that every new user read and accepted the rules before creating an account, which helps when it comes to defending the platform in case of a dispute.

How to Download Signup Terms Of Service (TOS)

The Signup Terms Of Service (TOS) is available for download here on Ultrapack. After downloading the file, install it via Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, select the .zip and activate the plugin to enable the checkbox on signup.

A signup form with no mention of the terms of use leaves the network exposed when some kind of conflict arises with a user. Placing the checkbox directly on the registration screen closes that gap without requiring any change to the theme or to the existing signup flow.
