Redirecten, User Role and Affiliate Dashboard

Hi Christoph,
we hope you’re doing well!

1. This is by default, the plugin only adds the affiliate role, and the customer role is added by WooCommerce. However, to remove the customer role when registering an affiliate, add this code to the functions.php of your active theme:

if ( defined( 'YITH_WCAF' ) && ! function_exists( 'yith_wcaf_new_affiliate_remove_customer_role' ) ) {
    function yith_wcaf_new_affiliate_remove_customer_role( $id ) {
        $user = get_user_by('id', $id);
        $user->remove_role( 'customer' );
    }
    
    add_action( 'yith_wcaf_new_affiliate', 'yith_wcaf_new_affiliate_remove_customer_role', 10, 1 );
}

2. In order to achieve that, add this code too:

if( ! function_exists( "yith_wcaf_redirect_to_affiliate_dashboard" ) ) {

    function yith_wcaf_redirect_to_affiliate_dashboard()
    {
   
     return home_url('/affiliate-dashboard');
   
    }
   
    add_filter( 'login_redirect', 'yith_wcaf_redirect_to_affiliate_dashboard' );
    add_filter( 'woocommerce_login_redirect', 'yith_wcaf_redirect_to_affiliate_dashboard' );
   
   }

3. In order to fix that, try with this code:

if ( defined( 'YITH_WCAF' ) ) {
    add_filter( 'yith_wcaf_show_dashboard_links', '__return_true' );
    add_filter( 'yith_wcaf_show_dashboard_links_withdraw', '__return_true' );
}

We will be attentive to your response.

Best regards.

Hi it works except the first one.

Do i have to change “customer” to “kunde”, cause its the german role name for customer?

2+3 works great thx.

Hi Christoph,
thanks for your reply!

You can try with that role name, in my case the customer role is called “customer” but we think that by default, these data are saved in English. However, you can verify it by going to the wp_user_meta table of your database, filtering by a specific id that has that role, and verify the value(s) that the wp_capabilities key has (for example
a:1:{s:8:”customer”;b:1;})

Check it out and tell us any news, please.

Have a nice day!

thx for ur fast reply.

yes its customer so the 1. snippet dont work.

and now … all login go to affiliate-dashboard but only the affiliate role should redirect to this.

Hi Christoph,

The first code should work. We have tested it and it works correctly. The customer role on your site is probably called something else.
On the other hand, we have made corrections to be able to perform the redirects as you wish. Try this new code and let us know if it works for you:

if ( !function_exists('my_login_redirect') ) {
    function my_login_redirect( $redirect_to, $request, $user ) {
        if ( isset( $user->roles ) && is_array( $user->roles ) ) {
            if ( in_array( 'administrator', $user->roles ) ) {
                return $redirect_to;
            } elseif ( in_array( 'yith_affiliate', $user->roles ) ) {
                return home_url( '/affiliate-dashboard' );
            } else {
                return home_url();
            }
        } else {
            return $redirect_to;
        }
    }
     
    add_filter( 'login_redirect', 'my_login_redirect', 10, 3 );
}

if ( !function_exists('filter_woocommerce_login_redirect') ) {
    function filter_woocommerce_login_redirect( $redirect, $user ) { 
        if ( isset( $user->roles ) && is_array( $user->roles ) ) {
            if ( in_array( 'administrator', $user->roles ) ) {
                return $redirect;
            } elseif ( in_array( 'yith_affiliate', $user->roles ) ) {
                return home_url( '/affiliate-dashboard' );
            } else {
                return $redirect;
            }
        } else {
            return $redirect;
        }
    }; 
             
    add_filter( 'woocommerce_login_redirect', 'filter_woocommerce_login_redirect', 10, 2 );
}

We will be attentive to your response.

Best regards.

Thx that snippet looks pretty good.

for 1) i give it another try.

Hi Christoph,
thanks for your reply.

Just to be sure, are you verifying that the Affiliate role is only added in new affiliates or in those that you already had previously created? It only works when a new affiliate is registered.

We will be attentive to your response.

Have a nice day.
