    Hi guys,

    Firstly, awesome plugin, thanks for creating!

    My question: When someone signs up using the Facebook social login, how do I store the age range and gender data that Facebook gives access to as a default as part of the ‘public_profile’?

    See quote from develops.facebook.com:

    public_profile: Provides access to a person’s basic information, including first name, last name, profile picture, gender and age range. This permission is approved by default.

    For reference I am using the most up to date version of this plugin and Buddypress

    Hi,

    Thanks for the appreciation ??
    You can add gender and age-range in the fields passed in Facebook API in wp-content/plugins/super-socializer/js/front/social_login/facebook.js file.
    Then you can use following hooks defined at line number 431 and 250 in wp-content/plugins/super-socializer/inc/social_login.php file to save the fetched data in database, respectively:
    apply_filters('the_champ_hook_format_profile_data', $temp, $profileData, $provider);
    do_action('the_champ_user_successfully_created', $userId, $userdata, $profileData);

    Hi guys,

    Thanks so much for this, works perfectly!!!

    One follow up question, as I have now edited the ‘wp-content/plugins/super-socializer/js/front/social_login/facebook.js’ directly to add the ‘gender’ and ‘age_range’ fields. Is this likely to be overwritten If I update to a more recent version of your plugin in the near future or is this file likely to stay fairly static?

    You could have dequeued the original facebook.js file and enqueued your custom file from functions.php of your theme or from a custom plugin.
    This way these changes won’t get affected by plugin updates.
