Your user_meta is not updated, because you process checkboxes incorrectly… First of all… You’ve set values of all your checkboxes to 1. So if they’re checked, then their value is 1 – and this is the value you save as user_meta. On the other hand, when the checkbox is not checked, then it won’t be … Read more
ACF has a built in way to do this. Its acf_form(). Essentially it lets you build a form on the frontend that will update your custom fields. Here is a basic example from their site. Note the use of acf_form_head(), which is needed to actually save the data. <?php acf_form_head(); ?> <?php get_header(); ?> <div … Read more
This plugin provides filter to manage the menu item by meta value: function custom_menu_item_visibility( $visible, $item ){ if( isset( $item->roles ) ){ $user_id = get_current_user_id(); $user_meta = get_user_meta( $user_id, ‘your-meta-key’, true ); if ( /* your condition */ ){ $visible = true; } else { $visible = false; } } return $visible; } add_filter( ‘nav_menu_roles_item_visibility’, … Read more
There does not seem to be an easy overwrite without replicating the whole user interface. So the quickest solution might be to un-check the checkbox via JavaScript: add_action(‘admin_footer’, ‘uncheck_send_user_notification’); function uncheck_send_user_notification() { $currentScreen = get_current_screen(); if (‘user’ === $currentScreen->id) { echo ‘<script type=”text/javascript”>document.getElementById(“send_user_notification”).checked = false;</script>’; } } The script is only injected on the user-new.php … Read more
Your parameter order is wrong for get_user_meta. The user id should be first. Try: var_dump(get_user_meta( $user->ID, ‘afzfp_user_status’, true));
There are 3 main issues in your code: I see you’re using current_user_id() which does not exist in WordPress, so I believe that should be get_current_user_id(). Your update_basic_user_meta() function basically would work in updating the user’s metadata, but you need to check whether the POST data (gender and specialty) are actually set before proceeding to … Read more
Directly on the question – no, the get_the_author_meta() function is not supposed to return you by default the birthday date when you provide 0 for user ID, as it is not a default user meta field. Yet, providing 0 is the same as not providing a user ID at all, hence the function tries to … Read more
Are you by chance using Firefox to test your page? If so its prefetching function combined with WordPress rel=”next” could be the culprit. Check your page source for those rel tags, and see if Firebug registers an extra GET request to the page specified in the href attribute of the rel tag. There is a … Read more
On the “profile page”, i.e. user-edit.php in the admin back-end, the user ID of the profile currently being edited lives in the $user_id global. Hence: global $user_id; update_user_meta( $user_id, ‘key’, ‘value’ ); is the essence of what you are looking for. Whether the current user is an admin needs to be checked only if you … Read more
wp_insert_user will not create a non-existing user with a set ID, it will return an error. The way to do this would be to first do: global $wpdb; $wpdb->insert( $wpdb->users, array( ‘ID’ => 136166 ) ); wp_insert_user( … ); The code above will first create an empty user row with the set ID (it will … Read more
