hook action to points update

    I would like have an action that upon an update to the mycred_default_total to check the balance and carry out action if the balance is greater than x or y.

    so that in effect on each award of mycred points :

    $balance = get_user_meta( $user_id, 'mycred_default_total', true );
if ($balance>249) update_user_meta( $user_id, 'private_group', 'group1');

    I can code the action, but am struggling as to where to hook it to or put it.

    Do you have any natural hooks, the best place I could see would be
    function mycred_update_user_meta in mycred-functions, as presumably apart from the initial creation, this is the function called whenever the balance is updated?

    I would therefore have 3 choices

    1. Copy the mycred_update_user_meta function to my functions file, and add the actions within that. I presume that since the theme’s function file would be called first, then this would work as you function would not load – but your advice would be welcome.

    2. Change the core function in your plugin and note to need to change it whenever update occur – less than optimum

    3. The solution you will now post, which is much better than the two above ?

    Thanks for your help

    You can use the mycred_update_user_balance action hook which fires once a users balance has been changed.

    The action hook can tell you which user we adjusted, their balance before the adjustment, the amount that we requested to adjust and the point type. Note that this hook fires after a users balance has been adjusted and not before.

    Example:

    add_action( '', 'myfunction', 10, 4 );
function myfunction( $user_id, $current, $amount, $type ) {
	if ( $current+$amount >= 100 ) {
		// do your thing...
	}
}
