Notes

Before copying the HTML from the actual Company/Contact sign-up pages be sure the settings are set appropriately. These setting are generally stored and controlled by hidden input fields in the HTML. For example, on a contact sign-up page the Effect On User's Profile setting is stored in the following hidden field:

<input type="hidden" name='roleupdatetype' value="1" />

The value for each option in the field is:

Most other settings are similarly controlled.
