We’d like to require users to accept our terms and conditions before they can create an account. I found a similar thread on this topic:

Security for underage users

However, our legal settings tab does not have the checkbox as shown. We tried updating the config files without success. Can someone please tell us how to enable this feature? Thank you.

Best wishes,

Use the User Fields instead. Copy the tos_accept from the screenshot below.

Worked like a charm! Thank you

To require acceptance of a terms-of-service, use a required custom user field.

When defining a user field, you can select “Field Requirement” as “For all users”. When you do so, all new and existing users will be prompted to fill the custom field.
