How To Notify Users When A Specific Profile Edit Is Made

  • So i am scanning all over the web to find a plugin or a fix for the following.

    I am trying to generate an automatic email notification to my users when an admin changes a specific profile field. For instance if i change the “Phone number” I want a specific email sent to that user notifying them their phone number was changed!

    Is there a plugin that can do this? If not, what would be the best way to notify a user that a specific PROFILE update has been made. I AM running 4.3.1 wordpress version.

    P.S. I am building my site to TRACK the status of our services. This email notification will be key in to letting them know if they are APPROVED or DECLINED in the legal financial industry.

  • Hi,

    Since a profile phone number field is not a part of WP core, I presume it has been added to your site using

    1) Hard coding

    2) Using a plugin

    If it is a plugin, depending on the plugin, some have an action or filter that triggers when a field is updated.

    A function can be written that emails the user and this function is executed with the update trigger.

    So if the site does use a plugin I would first of all check the plugin to see if it has such an uupdate action or filter.

    Hope this helps ??
