I’d suggest to read how the filters and hooks work inside WordPress here, that’s the easiest way (and the recommended one) to add/alter the site functionality.
The wp_insert_user()
function returns the new created user ID so I wouldn’t use a custom query for inserting user records since you can use add_user_meta()
: see the docs here
You have to call wp_signon()
before outputting any HTML, see the notes from the function docs: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_signon
- This function sends headers to the page. It must be run before any content is returned
- This function sets an authentication cookie. Users will not be logged in if it is not sent.
