Access User Meta Data on User Registration in Wordpress
- by Shadi Almosri
Hiya,
I am attempting to carry out a few functions when a user registers on a wordpress site. I have created a module for this which carries out the following function:
add_action( 'user_register', 'tml_new_user_registered' );
function tml_new_user_registered( $user_id ) {
//wp_set_auth_cookie( $user_id, false, is_ssl() );
//wp_redirect( admin_url( 'profile.php' ) );
$user_info = get_userdata($user_id);
$subscription_value = get_user_meta( $user_id, "subscribe_to_newsletter", TRUE);
if($subscription_value == "Yes") {
//include("Subscriber.Add.php");
}
echo "<pre>: ";
print_r($user_info);
print_r($subscription_value);
echo "</pre>";
exit;
}
But it seems that i am not able to access any user meta data as at the end of this stage none of it is stored.
Any ideas how i execute a function once Wordpress has completed the whole registration process of adding meta data into the relevant tables too?
I attempted to use this:
add_filter('user_register ','tml_new_user_registered',99);
But with no luck unfortunately.
Thanks in advance!
