    Hello,

    I have a WordPress site with WooCommerce and several registration plugins. The default role is set as “Customer,” but sometimes, certain users register and end up with the “Subscriber” role. I would like some advice on this. Should users who register through a plugin that doesn’t provide first name, last name, and email be assigned the “Subscriber” role because their user details are missing? Or are there other factors that could be causing this?

  • Hi @rizalmasan

    By default, WooCommerce creates a new user with the customer role only.

    As you mentioned, there could be other factors causing this.

    If you have development experience, I would suggest you to investigate the following in all the active plugins:

    • Use of the the function wc_create_new_customer where the argument role is set to be subscriber.
    • Any use of the woocommerce_new_customer_data filter hook where the role is set to be subscriber.

    Let me know if that helps!

    Hi @rizalmasan

    Thanks for reaching out!

    I understand that certain users are being assigned the Subscriber role instead of the Customer role upon registration. This issue could be due to several factors.

    Firstly, it’s important to note that the role assignment is not directly related to the presence or absence of user details like first name, last name, or email. In fact, the role assignment should be determined by the registration plugin or process being used on your site.

    Furthermore, as what @kaavyaiyer mentioned above, registered users on your site would have the Customer role by default.

    You’ve mentioned that you have several registration plugins running in your site. This could be one factor or another plugin present on your site.

    For us to investigate this further, can you please try to switch to the default Storefront theme and only WooCommerce plugin is enabled, try to register a user and see if the default role is Customer?

    If so, try to enable your plugins one by one, repeat the process of registering users on your site, and see what plugin is causing the users role to become Subscriber instead of Customer.

    Let us know how it goes!
