5. Separate users on registration

  • I want to rent my property

 

Users who check: I only want to book

These users will have the user dashboard pages limited to those from below screenshot (no pages for submit)

 

User who check: I want to rent my property

These users will have the user dashboard with all pages, including submitting property:

IMPORTANT: When using login through social media (Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo) – the user is disconnected from the site register and is taken over by the API of the social login which registers and logins the users. In this case, user will have the default options (which include submit) even if you enable the option to select between users who rent and users who rent and book.

DON’T Separate users on registration

If you choose the option to NOT separate users on registration, all users who register will have all user dashboard pages (including submit).

This is how the user dashboard page looks like:
