Add User Dashboard Module

In Paymattic the User Dashboard feature allows users to manage their payment activities directly from their WordPress dashboard and view all the submitted information and payment history. This article will guide you on how to add and configure the User Dashboard in Paymattic.

Pro Feature

The User Dashboard is a premium feature available only in [Paymattic Pro](/# 1-toc-title).

Enable User Dashboard

First, go to Settings from the Paymattic Navbar, open the User Dashboard tab from the left sidebar, and click the Enable User Dashboard Module button.

NOTE

This needs to be enabled the first time you open the User Dashboard module.

Enable dashboard module

Once you enable the module, the Dashboard Settings page will appear with different settings options.

After setting up all the settings according to your needs, click the Save Settings button to save all your changes.

User Permissions

The Paymattic User option allows you to choose the level of access you want to give your users.

Now, select the roles by clicking the checkbox according to your preference. For example, I selected the Read entry roles.

But, if you want to select all the roles at once, simply click the Check All button.

The following permissions are available for your users:

  • Read Entry: Allows users to view their own submitted form entries from the user dashboard.
  • Read Subscription Entry: Allows users to view their subscription details, including status and billing history, from the user dashboard.
  • Cancel Subscription: Allows users to cancel their own active subscriptions directly from the user dashboard.
  • Sync Subscription Billing: Allows users to manually sync their subscription’s billing status with the payment gateway from the user dashboard, so the latest billing/payment information is reflected instantly.
  • Update Subscription Card: Allows users to update the card/payment method attached to their active subscriptions directly from the user dashboard, without contacting the admin.

WARNING

Remember, if you want your users to be able to cancel their subscriptions from their user dashboard, make sure to check the “Cancel Subscription” box. Similarly, to let users update their payment card or sync their billing status on their own, make sure to check the “Update Subscription Card” and “Sync Subscription Billing” boxes respectively.

User permissions

Dashboard Page

Paymettic automatically creates a page for your users named Paymattic Dashboard. Simply, select the Payamattic Dashboard page by clicking the dropdown arrow.

Also, if you want any custom page for your user you can select it from the Dropdown menu.

TIP

But we recommend selecting our Paymattic Dashboard page for your user.

You will need a User Registration Form for your user to register in your Paymattic Dashboard.

First, go to All Forms from the Paymattic Navbar, choose any existing User Registration Form you have, and click the Pencil/Editor icon.

For example, I choose the Registration Form for the Paymattic Dashboard to show the process.

If you do not have any existing forms, read the create a from scratch or Create a Form using using templates documentation.

Once the Editor page opens, go to the Integrations tab.

  • Name: Here, you can set a name according to your preference for your feed.
  • Email Address: In this field, you have to select the Email Address.
  • User Name: Here, use the {input.customer_email} shortcode because your customer email will be the user name to log in to your Paymattic user dashboard field.

  • Password: Here, use the {input.password} shortcode to address your password
  • Default User Role: You can select a default user role for your paymattic user.

  • Allow the user login automatically after registration: Enable this option and your user will be directly logged into your Paymattic User Dashboard after registration.
  • Send default WordPress welcome email to user after registration: Here you will also get the checkbox option to give a Welcome Email Notification to your user. Don’t create a user if one already exists in the database with the same email address: If you want to disable the form submission of already existing users then just simply check this box.
  • Conditional logics: If you have any conditions about this submission just set the conditions from the Conditional Logic option.
  • Enable this field: If you check this option, all the actions of this feed will only run for the visitors who are in logged out state and the email that is not registered yet.

Once you set up the page, click the Create User Registration Feed button and the feed will be added.

Now go to the form’s Settings, open the Confirmation tab, select the To a Page as the Confirmation Type, and select the Paymattice Dashboard page from the dropdown as a redirection page.

Then paste it to the page where you want to embed your User Registration Form and display the User Dashboard.

Add to page

Update Subscription Card

If you enabled the Update Subscription Card permission, your users can update the card attached to their active subscriptions directly from the Manage Subscription table in their User Dashboard.

To update the card, click the Card Icon next to the desired subscription in the Action column, and the Update Card pop-up will appear.

Update subscription card

Here, you can see the Current Card on file. Enter the new Card Number, MM/YY, and CVC, or click the Autofill button to auto-fill the card details. Once done, click the Update button to save the new card.

NOTE

To prevent abuse, users are limited to a set number of card updates per day. The pop-up shows how many attempts remain, e.g., "You can update your card 10 more times today."

This way, your users can keep their subscription payments running smoothly without needing to contact you whenever their card expires or changes.

Final Result

Now in your front end, you will see your User Registration Form like the below screenshot. Here your user needs to fill up the form to make complete the registration.

Your user dashboard will look like the screenshot below. You can also download the invoice by clicking on the Download button.
