Nickname as Publicname

[deniscgn]

Hello,

I set the Nickname required and unique. Now I automaticly want the nickname become the publicname.

How does that work? Is there an action hook or something?

Cheers,
Denis

Hello, You can use “user_meta_after_user_register” action hook, that trigger right after user registration. And you can update nicename or display_name by using this hook.

user_meta_after_user_register

Thanks.

Hello,

when I add this function it works, but WP does change the german charachters.
How do I put this into the function?

add_action( 'user_meta_after_user_register', 'user_meta_after_user_register_function' );
function user_meta_after_user_register_function( $response ){
$userID = $response->ID;
$user_login = $_POST['user_login'];
wp_update_user( array ( 'ID' => $userID, 'display_name' => $user_login ) );
}

Thanks for help,
Denis

Hello,

I use this code, but this does not work 🙁

/* User Meta Pro Nickname for Publicname */

function user_meta_after_user_register_function( $userData ){
$userData[ ‘display_name’ ] = $_POST[ ‘nickname’ ];
return $userData;
}
add_filter( ‘user_meta_after_user_register’, ‘user_meta_after_user_register_function’ );

this seems to work

/* User Meta Pro Email for Username */

function emailToUsername( $userData ){
$userData[ ‘user_login’ ] = $_POST[ ‘user_email’ ];
return $userData;
}
add_filter( ‘user_meta_pre_user_register’, ’emailToUsername’ );

/* User Meta Pro Nickname for Publicname */

function displaynameToNickname( $userData ){
$userData[ ‘nickname’ ] = $_POST[ ‘display_name’ ];
return $userData;
}
add_filter( ‘user_meta_pre_user_register’, ‘displaynameToNickname’ );
