Presently there is not a way to register a user and submit a Connections entry at the same time as Connections as Connections does not process WordPress user registrations. Many other users do is use a user registration plugin of which there are many great options available that feature admin approval of the user registrations. After the user has been admin approved and when the user logs in, the admin has it setup so the user is directed to a “member area” page from here the user is then given instructions on how to add/edit their directory entry.

I do have a new solution that may interest you, it’s just not available in the store yet as I am still preparing it. I have a new addon coming called Gravity Forms Connector. It will allow you to use Gravity Forms and their User Registration add-on to create a custom Gravity Form which will both process user registration and add a Connections entry. However I would only recommend this solution to those that are professional web developers with experience with Gravity Forms otherwise it may be overwhelming and frustrating due to the amount of setup required by requiring two custom Gravity Forms and configuration of their feed settings for Connections and User registration. If this is you and you are interested in this solution, here’s the link the Gravity Forms Connector doc page for your review. It is definitely still a work in progress. If you’d like to pursue this solution, we can work out a way to get you an advance copy of this addon.

Hope this helps, let me know.
