Change user role for WP-Members form

  • Hi there!

    I’m trying to get this code to work: 

    add_action( 'wpmem_post_register_data', function( $fields ) {
     if ( wpmem_is_reg_type( 'wpmem' ) ) {
          wpmem_update_user_role( $fields['ID'], 'author' );
     }
});

    What it should do is: set the user role of the registering user to ‘author’ IF the registration form is a wp-members registration form.

    The script works except the if-statement. I also tried to replace ‘wpmem’ with ‘woo_checkout’ to see if that works, but it didn’t either.

    Does someone know how to get this script to work?

    Many thanks in advance!

    This is an issue with the API function wpmem_is_reg_type().

    The function is intended to check a variable value in one of the plugin’s objects that indicates the specific registration process being run (such as WP-Members, WooCommerce, native WP, etc).

    It is not actually checking the correct object class for the value. The value is in the plugin’s user object class ($wpmem->user->reg_type), but it is being checked in the plugin’s main object class ($wpmem->reg_type).

    This will be fixed in the plugin’s next release, 3.4.2. In the meantime, it can be patched manually as described below.

    In the file includes/api/api.php, at line 476 in the wpmem_is_reg_type() function, look for the following line:

    return $wpmem->reg_type[ 'is_' . $type ];

    That should be changed to the following:

    return $wpmem->user->reg_type[ 'is_' . $type ];
