    Hi
    I would like admin to get email notification of users’ profile updates; I’m assuming that this is a feature of the Pro version, and so it can’t be done easily (user notifications work fine). However, I’m also using the Notification – Custom Notifications and Alerts for WordPress plugin, which will trigger an email on profile updates – but it doesn’t when they’re done via User Meta profile.

    Any ideas why, please?

    Hello,

    Most likely the two plugins use different hooks to trigger the admin email notification. For user meta frontend profile update, the email notification is triggered from a custom action hook. The hook is:
    user_meta_after_user_update

    Thanks.

    Thank you very much, @sourov; unfortunately that does, I assume, mean using the webhook option of the trigger setup, and although I’ve tried (!), setting that up is beyond my meagre skillset, so I’d have to have get outside help.
    Since Ultimate Member give their own profile update webhook (um_user_edit_profile), I might as well stick with that (still with help).

    PS – in case I’ve missed it, could you point me at the easiest explanation of the webhook dialog box? I can’t help feeling that with the limited options of URLs and Arguments, I really ought to be able to fill it in. Can I use merge tags (eg um_user_edit_profile) that aren’t in the list on the right?

    Thanks again for your prompt reply
