inherit custom profile fields in a multisite environment

  • I use s2Member Pro for a while now. It is a very impressive plugin. But I do have a question about the use of s2Member in a multisite environment.

    I have this multisite install of WP. In the primary site I use s2Member on top of WP and BP. S2Member has some custom profile fields.

    The members of this site can have their own blog/website. These blogs (or sub websites: https://www.domain.com/subwebsite) have the same users as the primary site (we don’t allow new users on the subwebsites). Members can be invited from the primary website. WordPress does ‘inherit’ the userdata from this higher level, but I don’t see the s2Member custom profile fields.

    Is there a way to inherit the custom profile field settings from the primary website?
    And can the custom profile fields values per user be inherited from the higher level?

  • Hi lemmersma,

    I got into the same exact problem.

    In case you have not already resolved it, this is how I approached it:

    function get_user_s2m_field($fieldName,$userID = null)
{
	$userID = $userID == null ? get_current_user_id() : $userID;
	$custFields = get_user_meta($userID, 'wp_s2member_custom_fields', true);
	return array_key_exists($fieldName, $custFields) ? $custFields[$fieldName] : null;
}

    This way it works in any sub-site of your network.

    Next time I would suggest you to post your question on the s2member official forum: you will have many more chances of getting a proper and fast feedback.

    I hope I was helpful.
