Can't set custom taxonomy terms via User meta form

[pixel016]

Hello Support,

I really need your help because i’ have buy the plugin and i can’t do what i want with.

When a user registers i build a post with form data, and i need to set cutom taxonomy terms of this new post (terms already exists).

I have tried this in the function.php

add_action( 'user_meta_after_user_register', 'createNewPost' );
function createNewPost( $response ){
    global $userMeta;
    
    $userID = $response->ID;
    $user = new WP_User( $userID );

    $role = $userMeta->getUserRole();
    
    if( $role = 'artiste' ){ // Assume you have custom role named 'artist'

        $newPost = array(
          'post_title'    => $user->nickname, // You can use user data here, for first_name: $user->first_name
          'post_content'  => $user->description,
          'post_status'   => 'pending',
          'post_author'   => $userID,
          'post_type'     => 'cpt_artists', // Assume, you have a custom post type named 'artist'
          'tax_input' => array('artist-category' => array('dj'))
        );
        
        $post_id = wp_insert_post( $newPost );
       // error_log('Post ID : '.$post_id);
        
        wp_set_object_terms( $post_id, array('dj'), 'artist-category');
        //wp_set_post_categories($post_id, array("3"));
        
        $term_list = wp_get_post_terms($post_id, 'artist-category', array("fields" => "all"));
        print_r($term_list);

    }
}

The post is created but terms are not set …

And the result of the print_r($term_list) :
“taxonomy doen’t exist”

Please help me

I found part of the solution : The function.php file is loaded beafore the init of wordpress, so custom taxonomy are not “available”.

I have tried to change add_action( 'user_meta_after_user_register', 'createNewPost' ); to add_action( 'init', 'createNewPost' ); but i have errors (header already send).

The plugin support can help me ?

Hi,

You can use following to load user_meta_after_user_register into init hook.

add_action( 'init', 'loadAfterUserRegistrationHook' );
function loadAfterUserRegistrationHook(){
    add_action( 'user_meta_after_user_register', 'createNewPost' );  
}

Thanks.

Thanks Khaled but it’s not working, function createNewPost is not executed.

[Khaled]

I have just tested it. It is working here.

add_action( 'init', 'loadAfterUserRegistrationHook' );
function loadAfterUserRegistrationHook(){
    add_action( 'user_meta_after_user_register', 'createNewPost' );  
}

function createNewPost( $response ){
    echo $response->user_login;
}

[pixel016]

hmmm me too : in my function.php here is :

add_action( 'init', 'loadAfterUserRegistrationHook' );
function loadAfterUserRegistrationHook(){
    add_action( 'user_meta_after_user_register', 'createNewPost' );  
}    
        
function createNewPost( $response ){
    global $userMeta;
    
    $userID = $response->ID;
    $user = new WP_User( $userID );

    $role = $userMeta->getUserRole();
    
    if( $role = 'artiste' ){ // Assume you have custom role named 'artist'

        $newPost = array(
          'post_title'    => $user->nickname, 
          'post_content'  => $user->description,
          'post_status'   => 'pending',
          'post_author'   => $userID,
          'post_type'     => 'cpt_artists'
        );
        
        $post_id = wp_insert_post( $newPost );
        error_log('Post ID : '.$post_id);
        
        wp_set_object_terms( $post_id, array('dj'), 'artist-category');
    }
}

And no new post and no Post id log.

And when i copy paste your code `add_action( ‘init’, ‘loadAfterUserRegistrationHook’ );
function loadAfterUserRegistrationHook(){
add_action( ‘user_meta_after_user_register’, ‘createNewPost’ );
}

function createNewPost( $response ){
echo $response->user_login;
}`

Hi,

Can you please send ftp and wp login data to support(at)user-meta.com

Thanks.

[pixel016]

I work in local so i don’t have ftp login for the moment.

Hello, You can try wp default action “user_register” which accept one parameter ($user_id) and triggered every time when a new user has registered.

[pixel016]

i’m not sure to understand, i’m trying something like this but i think it’s not that you say :

add_action( 'user_register', 'loadAfterUserRegistrationHook' );
function loadAfterUserRegistrationHook($user_id){
    add_action( 'user_meta_after_user_register', 'createNewPost');  
}    
        

function createNewPost( $response ){
    global $userMeta;
    
    
    $userID = $response->ID;
    $user = new WP_User( $userID );

    $role = $userMeta->getUserRole();
    
    if( $role = 'artiste' ){ 

        $newPost = array(
          'post_title'    => $user->nickname, 
          'post_content'  => $user->description,
          'post_status'   => 'pending',
          'post_author'   => $userID,
          'post_type'     => 'cpt_artists', 
        );
        
        $post_id = wp_insert_post( $newPost );
        error_log('Post ID : '.$post_id);
        
        wp_set_object_terms( $post_id, array('dj'), 'artist-category');

    }
}

I can’t add my script to another page that will be called after the init ? it will solve all the problems no ?

[Khaled]

Action: user_meta_after_user_register are loaded on admin-ajax.php(for ajax) or inside init hook. So it suppose to load after init. To make sure, the action are loaded later, you can try following changes.

If you are using 1.1.5rc1, replace line 54,55 on user-meta/framework/init.php

        add_action( 'wp_ajax_pf_ajax_request',                   array( $this, 'pfAjaxRequest' ) );
        add_action( 'wp_ajax_nopriv_pf_ajax_request',            array( $this, 'pfAjaxRequest' ) );  

with

        add_action( 'wp_ajax_pf_ajax_request',                   array( $this, 'pfAjaxRequest' ), 80 );
        add_action( 'wp_ajax_nopriv_pf_ajax_request',            array( $this, 'pfAjaxRequest' ), 80 );  

And line 35 on controllers/umPreloadsController.php

add_action( 'init', array( $this, 'processPostRequest' ) );

with

add_action( 'init', array( $this, 'processPostRequest' ), 80 );

Try those changes with your earlier code http://user-meta.com/forums/topic/cant-set-custom-taxonomy-terms-via-user-meta-form/#post-4671

And although functions.php load before init but you are executing your code by calling action, those action will load after init.

Thanks.
