Can there be a way for people to choose profile type on sign up?

I have profiles set to automatic profile creation after they sign up. Can there be a way for the member to decide if their automatic profile is an organization (a business like McDonald's) or a person (like me)? I don't think McDonald's should have a person's profile, but I have the default as person's because there are more people than businesses.

    • Yes, in studio->settings->account->Default profile type

      Choose option with "select one" and save settings.

      Also you may uncheck "automatic profile creation from account name"

      • But that's what I mean, Default profile type in my installation is persons. Some people's default profile (like Nike) needs to be organizations.

        My site only allows one profile per person, so I just think that a full-on business should be represented as a business while people like me should be represented a normal person.

        • Hi Genesis

          Ate you able to solve the problem you mentioned above ? If so can you please explain me , I also want to have people select different profile types while creating account and in fact I want to have even different categories in profiles like ( job seekers, recruiters etc) apart from the Organisations . Wanted to give users to select any one or the above option and connect to the platform.

          it would be of great help in using this customisation for my use case, since I want users to select especially profile type : Person with different categories might be my wording is wrong about categories UNA Team please suggest.

          Thank You

          • Hello @Jobfynder !

            Well, dear @Stephen-Mystic Inam gave the best solution. You need to disable the automatic profile creation and then the site's guests can choose their profile type right after registration.
