See capabilities under Function Reference/register post type – Parameters Managing User Capabilities You can use add_cap or remove_cap to add or remove user capabilities for a specific user. // Add capability to a … Read more
How to customize wp_signon()
A solution I have found is to manipulate the entry after submission using the following: function submit_as_user_proxy( $form ) { $id = null; $proxy_user_meta = null; $user_role=””; $field_existing_users = null; $field_signed_up_as = null; foreach ( $form[‘fields’] as &$field ) { if ( false !== strpos( $field->cssClass, ‘existing_users’ ) ) { $field_existing_users = &$field; } if … Read more
I had a very similar situation, but I am using it for a family member with an illness to provide updates to the wider friends and family without relying on the primary caretaker to give these updates and a blog seemed the best way. We also wanted to allow people to add comments to the … Read more
Ok, I got it figured out. For some reason, current_user_can was returning false when an admin went to edit other user’s posts… I have no idea how admins lost the ability to do this, but putting this into functions.php is a workable bandaid that restores admin edit capabilities; $administrator = get_role(‘administrator’); $administrator->add_cap(‘edit_others_posts’);
I used this so a teacher would mark what courses the students were subscribed to. This is a generic version of that code, using only one extra field. Admin view Other users view <?php /* Plugin Name: Admin User Fields */ add_action( ‘admin_init’, ‘wpse_70265_init’); function wpse_70265_init() { if( current_user_can( ‘administrator’ ) ) { add_action( ‘show_user_profile’, … Read more
This is dependant on your theme/plugins so it’s impossible to answer, as s_ha_dum mentioned. For example some themes output the author name in the body as a class like <body class=”author-keanu”> or maybe they just use the author id like <body class=”archive author-22″> and then you can check the author by going to www.example.com/?author=22 and … Read more
Notice that your redirection must happen before the HTTP headers are sent out. You can try the following, where we place our logic inside the template_redirect hook callback (PHP 5.4+): /** * Redirect logged-in users to the admin dashboard * if the have written ‘student_form’ posts * else display [wpuf_form id=”414″] */ add_action( ‘template_redirect’, function() … Read more
The problem is from wp_insert_user and the fact that your value for user_pass is empty. You should update your code as so $random_password = wp_generate_password(8,false); $user_data = array( ‘user_login’ => $first_name, ‘user_pass’ => $random_password, ‘user_email’ => $trainer_email, ‘first_name’ => $first_name, ‘last_name’ => $last_name, ‘role’ => ‘trainer’ ); And remove this line wp_set_password($random_password, $user_id); You should … Read more
No, the user system does not have a trash (this is the default, obviously you can add pretty anything). My problem was caused by users meta… If you take a look at the the function count_users (located in wp-includes/user.php), you’ll see some comments there. It says that the function: Assumes there are neither duplicated nor … Read more
