### 1. **Verify User Registration Process**
– Ensure that the `user_register` hook is relevant to your user registration flow. This hook fires after a new user is created using the core WordPress registration system.
– If you're using a custom plugin (e.g., **UsersWP**) or a third-party plugin for user registration, it might not trigger the `user_register` hook. Check if the plugin provides its own hooks for handling registrations.
### 2. **Priority and Function Setup**
– You're using `PHP_INT_MAX` for the hook priority. While this is valid, it is an unusually high value. Try using a more typical priority (e.g., `10`) to see if the hook fires.
– Example:
add_action('user_register', 'userwp_user_registration_approval', 10);
### 3. **Debugging the Hook**
– Add a debugging line to check if the function is being called:
function userwp_user_registration_approval($user_id) {
error_log('user_register hook called for user ID: ' . $user_id);
// Your code here
}
add_action('user_register', 'userwp_user_registration_approval', 10);
– Check the `debug.log` file for entries. To enable `debug.log`, add the following to `wp-config.php` if not already done:
define('WP_DEBUG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false);
### 4. **Third-Party Plugins Conflicts**
– If you're using **UsersWP** or similar plugins, they might override the registration process and not call `user_register`. Check the plugin documentation or code for alternative hooks, such as:
– `userswp_after_user_register`
– `um_after_user_register` (Ultimate Member)
– Similar hooks depending on your plugin.
### 5. **Custom Registration Process**
– If you have a custom registration form that does not use `wp_insert_user()` or `register_new_user()`, the `user_register` hook might not fire. Ensure your registration process uses these core functions.
### 6. **Hook Call Trace**
– Check if `user_register` is already being used elsewhere in your codebase or by other plugins. This can prevent your function from firing if there are conflicts or conditions preventing it from executing.
### 7. **Example with Plugin-Specific Hooks**
– For **UsersWP**, you can try this hook:
function userwp_user_registration_approval($user_id) {
error_log('UsersWP registration hook called for user ID: ' . $user_id);
update_user_meta($user_id, 'aiowps_account_status', 'pending');
update_user_meta($user_id, 'userwp_account_status', '1');
}
add_action('userswp_after_user_register', 'userwp_user_registration_approval', 10);
By following these steps, you should be able to identify why the `user_register` hook is not firing and adapt your code accordingly.
### Implementation
function update_user_role_on_site_load() {
// Check if a user is logged in
if (is_user_logged_in()) {
// Get the current user's ID
$user_id = get_current_user_id();
// Get the user's data
$user = get_userdata($user_id);
// Check if the user's role needs to be changed
if (in_array('pending', $user->roles)) { // Replace 'pending' with your role slug
// Change the user's role
wp_update_user(array(
'ID' => $user_id,
'role' => 'subscriber' // Replace 'subscriber' with the desired role slug
));
}
}
}
add_action('init', 'update_user_role_on_site_load');

### Explanation of the Code
1. **`is_user_logged_in()`**: Ensures that the function runs only for logged-in users.
2. **`get_current_user_id()`**: Retrieves the current user's ID.
3. **`get_userdata($user_id)`**: Fetches the user's data, including roles.
4. **Role Check**: Checks if the user currently has a specific role (e.g., `pending`).
5. **`wp_update_user()`**: Updates the user's role if the condition is met.

### Points to Consider
1. **Performance Impact**:
– Running role updates on every page load might impact performance. Ensure this is strictly necessary.
2. **Avoid Overwriting Unnecessarily**:
– Only update roles when needed to prevent redundant database updates.
3. **Role Logic**:
– Modify the role logic to fit your requirements (e.g., checking specific conditions like metadata or timestamps).
4. **Custom Hooks for Specific Scenarios**:
– Use targeted hooks like `wp_login` if the role update is only needed during user login.

### Alternative: Update Role on Login
If changing roles on every page load is unnecessary, you can hook into `wp_login` instead:
function update_user_role_on_login($user_login, $user) {
if (in_array('pending', $user->roles)) {
wp_update_user(array(
'ID' => $user->ID,
'role' => 'subscriber'
));
}
}
add_action('wp_login', 'update_user_role_on_login', 10, 2);
This will update the user role only when the user logs in, which is more efficient and logical.
$user_info = get_userdata($user_id);
update_user_meta($user_id, 'aiowps_account_status', 'pending');
update_user_meta($user_id, 'userwp_account_status', '1');
update_user_meta($user_id, 'userwp_account_status2', '1');
//write_log('uwp_after_process_register: ' . "r" . $user_info->user_login . "/r" . $user_info->ID);
}
add_action('uwp_after_process_register', 'ogz_uwp_after_process_register', 10, 2);
Now change user role to provider by removing subscriber
### Updated Code
function ogz_uwp_after_process_register( $data, $user_id ) {
// Get user info
$user_info = get_userdata($user_id);
// Update user meta as needed
update_user_meta($user_id, 'aiowps_account_status', 'pending');
update_user_meta($user_id, 'userwp_account_status', '1');
update_user_meta($user_id, 'userwp_account_status2', '1');
// Get the user's current roles
$user_roles = $user_info->roles;
// Remove 'subscriber' role if it exists
if (in_array('subscriber', $user_roles)) {
$user_roles = array_diff($user_roles, ['subscriber']);
}
// Add 'provider' role
$user_roles[] = 'provider';
// Update the user's roles
wp_update_user(array(
'ID' => $user_id,
'roles' => $user_roles
));
// Optionally, log the changes (if needed)
// write_log('uwp_after_process_register: ' . "r" . $user_info->user_login . "/r" . $user_info->ID);
}
add_action('uwp_after_process_register', 'ogz_uwp_after_process_register', 10, 2);
### Explanation of Changes:
1. **Get Current Roles**: The user's current roles are fetched using `$user_info->roles`.
2. **Remove Subscriber Role**: If the user has the `subscriber` role, it is removed from the roles array using `array_diff()`.
3. **Add Provider Role**: The `provider` role is added to the roles array.
4. **Update User Roles**: The `wp_update_user()` function is called to update the user's roles.
### Important Notes:
– **Role Existence**: Ensure the `provider` role exists in your WordPress installation. You can create a custom role using `add_role()` if it doesn't exist.
Example:
if (!get_role('provider')) {
add_role('provider', 'Provider', array(
'read' => true, // Add capabilities as needed
));
}
– **Logging**: If you want to log user information for debugging, ensure that `write_log()` is a valid function or replace it with `error_log()` to log to `wp-content/debug.log`.
This will change the user's role to `provider` while removing the `subscriber` role every time a user is registered and the `uwp_after_process_register` action is triggered.
But I think we can disable click link tracking at sendgrid.
So We will also check cloudflare tomorrow If we can solve issue here.
Correct above sentence
"We've checked by disabling click tracking in SendGrid, and the password link works fine in private Chrome. I think we can disable click link tracking in SendGrid. We will also check Cloudflare tomorrow to see if we can resolve the issue there."
