Issue Summary

feature request: in settings.. to be able to add a description or instructions that would appear in the Apply for role page.. so users can read and understand the instructions before apply for role.

Comments

#1

also if selected the option to include apply for role in registration page... the description should have to appear there too. Or even better: an alternative description available for that.

#2

+1 for this feature

#3

I also think this would be helpful. It would be useful as an HTML-friendly text area, so that we can link to a page about the accounts, or just provide the information directly in the field.

Here's a temporary workaround:

1. Open apply_for_role.module
2. Find '#title' => variable_get('apply_for_role_multiple', 0) ? t('Select a role or roles') : t('Select a role'),
3. Add a line break after this text
4. Add the following (watch the comma at the end!):

    '#description' => t('Enter the help text you want to show here. This will display under the list of selectable roles. Make sure you keep the quotes.'),

5. Reupload the file.

This method works for me if the user is logged in and chooses to apply for a role. It does not work however when a user is applying for a role upon registration. The text does not show up below the roles on the registration form.

Any suggestions?

I think it would be helpful to allow a description next to each role available also, so: -

Generic Description Introduction

[x] Role 1 - Specific Desc 1
[x] Role 2 - Specific Desc 2

Generic Description Closer

For example ...

If you would like to be considered for the roles below, which offer extra permissions on our site, please select from the options below: -

[x] Advertiser - This role is required for users who want to place classified adverts
[x] Charity - This role is suggested for users who want to appear in our charities directory

Our site administrator will review your request, and you will be informed in due course
