This answer is copied from the best post over this topic! I could’ve just given you the links, but that would get me a comment from the mod to post sample code 😉 For adding the fields: add_action( ‘show_user_profile’, ‘my_show_extra_profile_fields’ ); add_action( ‘edit_user_profile’, ‘my_show_extra_profile_fields’ ); function my_show_extra_profile_fields( $user ) { ?> <h3>Extra profile information</h3> <table … Read more
You can try using the profile_update hook. Codex link here. It fires after updating, but supplies a copy of the old user data, so you can get the current email address, compare it with the old one and change back if necessary.
I think you are confusing function arguments with author (user) meta fields. To get all user meta fields you can use get_user_meta() with empty $key parameter. For example, for user with ID 45: $user_meta = get_user_meta( 45 ); $user_meta will be an array with all meta fields for the user with ID = 45.
I think you want something like this: <textarea type=”text” name=”twitter” id=”twitter” class=”regular-text”><?php echo esc_attr( get_the_author_meta( ‘twitter’, $user->ID ) ); ?></textarea> Note, the input field has a value attribute while the textarea has it’s content between <textarea> and </textarea>
Based on your comments, you should choose option 2 (using special template files). You can do that multiple ways, but I suggest you do the following: Create a plugin that will setup login, register, retrieve password, profile, delete account, and other related pages; (there will be a lot of pages). Creating a plugin is just … Read more
WordPress doesn’t support such field placement in user profile. If you absolutely need to have your meta field after Nickname, you can use javascript to move form field from one place to another. Look at this example, but change it to move entire <tr>.
you can save the 1000 conditional checks by using str_replace and your code would be much more efficient, something like this: //create the select options $options=””; for($i=1;$i<=1000;$i++) { $options.= ‘<option value=”‘.$i.'”>’.$i.'</option>’; } //get the saved data $saved = get_the_author_meta( ‘number_pick’, $user->ID ); $saved = (!empty($saved))? $saved: false; if ($saved) //if there is a saved data … Read more
Files named “core” are created when some OS process crashes. In your case it was likely a crash of the php interpreter. These files being memory dumps are used to debug the process “postmortem” – e.g. to check in which function did it fail, so it is perfectly safe to delete them if you are … Read more
You can use the WP_User class and the has_cap($role) method. The show_user_profile action passes a WP_User object as a parameter to the called function. http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_User#has_cap.28.24cap.29 add_action(‘show_user_profile’, ‘my_add_extra_profile_fields’); function my_add_extra_profile_fields($user) { if ($user->has_cap(‘subscriber’)) { //Code here } }
Since the asker really doesn’t want to post the answer … someone has to do it: SELECT wp_users.ID , wp_users.user_email FROM wp_users LEFT JOIN wp_bp_xprofile_data ON wp_bp_xprofile_data.user_id = wp_users.ID, WHERE wp_bp_xprofile_data.field_id = 8 AND wp_bp_xprofile_data.value=”yes” field_id = 8 being the Field you want to get (in my example, newsletter) wp_bp_xprofile_data.value=”yes”, being the value of the … Read more
