  • Hi @judyoos

    I’m not quite sure I understand what you’re trying to accomplish.
    You’re using the “user_register” action-hook – but how are you using it?
    Is the user using a front-end form? Or do you register them through the backend?

    I would 100% recommend using AJAX for this purpose.
    That way you can send the page_id, and make your if/else statement.

    I have 2 registration Pages for a user to register. due to the fact that I have 2 price plans to use the system. On registration i need to create 4 user field in the user meta data to use for logic in the system. Hence the update statements. all i now want to add is if the user user registration page 1 then do this set of updates else if it uses the registration page 2 then use the 2nd updates. thats all. so th user_register gets fired when a user register on the system.

    Front end form using theme my login plugin. The 1st if works…..

    Hi @judyoos

    Okay, I get that part now.
    Are the signup fields created with a plugin?
    Or did you code them yourself.

    Ah okay, I see your replies now.
    I don’t know the “Theme my login” plugin.
    But you can’t get the page_id() the way you’re trying to accomplish it – because the code (i suppose it’s in functions.php) does not know what page_id() the action is called from – so you’ll have to check this in one way or another. That’s why I suggested AJAX.

    Are you any familiar with AJAX?

    Are you talking about the fields on the registration form?
    If so they were created by the plugin “Theme-my-login”.

    The user meta fields I created via the update statements in the code I showed you.

    Jip I seems that now…the code is in a Code-snippets plugin. so I need to find another way to resolve the issue around the page id.

    I think so too, yes.
    And I would suggest AJAX to accomplish this.
