Multiple Recurring Payouts Types

We have actually migrated now to s2members now I am told.

Hi.

If you are using myCRED 1.6 or higher then you could always adjust how much points each user gets when the payout occurs using the mycred_run_this filter.

Here is a quick example using the default WordPress capabilities.

add_filter( 'mycred_run_this', 'mycred_pro_payout_by_role' );
function mycred_pro_payout_by_role( $request ) {

	// Only applicable for recurring payouts
	if ( $request['ref'] != 'recurring_payout' ) return $request;

	// Get user id
	$user_id = absint( $request['user_id'] );

	// Administrators get 100 points
	if ( user_can( $user_id, 'edit_users' ) )
		$request['amount'] = 100;

	// Editors get 50 points
	elseif ( user_can( $user_id, 'edit_others_posts' ) )
		$request['amount'] = 50;

	// Everyone else gets the amount set in the service
	return $request;

}

You could instead of checking capabilities check a users role or anything else that you need. I unfortunately have no s2 members knowledge so I am not sure how they differentiate between accounts.

Awesome, would i be putting this in my functions.php?

s2members just creates new roles with custom capabilities, however they seem to act and display just like regular wordpress roles.

Let me see if i understand your example.

if ( $request['ref'] != 'recurring_payout' ) return $request;
this checks to see if a recurring payout is to be made.

$user_id = absint( $request['user_id'] );
this would retrieve the users ID (does this include their role?)

// Administrators get 100 points
	if ( user_can( $user_id, 'edit_users' ) )
		$request['amount'] = 100;

	// Editors get 50 points
	elseif ( user_can( $user_id, 'edit_others_posts' ) )
		$request['amount'] = 50;

	// Everyone else gets the amount set in the service
	return $request;

these set what each level of subscriber/moderator would earn in myCRED points.

However I seek to set points payouts on roles, not specific User ID, or is the ID section pulling their membership level as well and then comparing?.

Hey.

The first part:
if ( $request['ref'] != 'recurring_payout' ) return $request;

makes sure that the code only is applied to recurring payouts and nothing else. Without this, your change will run for every single instance where users get points.

Next:
$user_id = absint( $request['user_id'] );

this just grabs the users ID. The ID in itself does not contain your users role. For that, you will need to grab the entire user object and then check the role of the user.

$user_id = absint( $request['user_id'] );
$user = get_userdata( $user_id );

Now you have a users roles accessable under $user->roles (which is an array).

So you could check for example:

if ( in_array( 'subscriber', $user->roles ) )
$request['amount'] = 100;

elseif ( in_array( 'administrator', $user->roles ) )
$request['amount'] = 500;

I have HACKED my own code together, but i am NOT a programmer, so let me know if this is even close.

add_filter( 'mycred_run_this', 'mycred_pro_payout_by_role' );
function mycred_pro_payout_by_role( $request ) {

// Only applicable for recurring payouts
	if ( $request['ref'] != 'recurring_payout' ) return $request;

// Get user role
$user_role = absint( $request['user_role'] );

// Set various roles recurring points payouts.

// ADMIN get 0 points
if ($user_role == 'administrator') {
$request['amount'] = 0;

// Lvl-1 get 100 points
} elseif ($user_role == 'Subscriber-Slug-Lvl-1') {
$request['amount'] = 100;

// Lvl-2 get 200 points
} elseif ($user_role == 'Subscriber-Slug-Lvl-2') {
$request['amount'] = 200;

// Lvl-3 get 500 points
} elseif ($user_role == 'Subscriber-Slug-Lvl-3') {
$request['amount'] = 500;

// Lvl-4 get 1000 points
} elseif ($user_role == 'Subscriber-Slug-Lvl-4') {
$request['amount'] = 1000;

// Everyone else gets the amount set in the service
} else {
return $request;
}

Hmm in regards to your most recent post i think my first attempt is VERY wrong lol

How about this:

add_filter( 'mycred_run_this', 'mycred_pro_payout_by_role' );
function mycred_pro_payout_by_role( $request ) {

// Only applicable for recurring payouts
	if ( $request['ref'] != 'recurring_payout' ) return $request;

// Get user role
$user_id = absint( $request['user_id'] );
$user = get_userdata( $user_id );

// Set various roles recurring points payouts.

// ADMIN get 0 points
if ( in_array( 'administrator', $user->roles ) )
$request['amount'] = 0;

// Subscriber Basic get 10 points
elseif ( in_array( 'subscriber', $user->roles ) )
$request['amount'] = 10;

// Subscriber LVL 1 get 100 points
elseif ( in_array( 'subscriber-lvl-1', $user->roles ) )
$request['amount'] = 100;

// Subscriber LVL 2 get 200 points
elseif ( in_array( 'subscriber-lvl-2', $user->roles ) )
$request['amount'] = 200;

// Subscriber LVL 3 get 500 points
elseif ( in_array( 'subscriber-lvl-3', $user->roles ) )
$request['amount'] = 500;

// Subscriber LVL 4 get 1000 points
elseif ( in_array( 'subscriber-lvl-4', $user->roles ) )
$request['amount'] = 1000;

// Everyone else gets the amount set in the service
} else {
return $request;
}

Looks good but you have missed the last closing bracket and since this is a filter, you must always return a result. Your code will only return a result if none of those roles are found which will break your site.

Here is how it should be: https://pastebin.com/KZGdH1B4

cool, and this should be added to functions.php correct?

Yes.
