Set Role based on email domain

[hesscj]

I am about to purchase the pro version of the plugin but I wanted to ask two questions before I pull the trigger.

1. Is it possible to set the role at registration based on the domain of their email. We have an “employee” role and would like to automatically apply that with our own domain and then fall back to a default one for everything else.

2. We want to restrict when someone changes their email that they have to confirm the change through a link in their email before it goes through. We have a Single-Sign-On that uses the WP email as the username and they could potentially change their email to someone else’s and log in as them. It also goes along with the above in that we don’t want people to be able to receive “employee” permissions by putting in an email “XYZ@mycompany.com”.

Thanks!

Hello,

Thanks for your interest about User Meta Pro.

1. It is possible to set user role while they are registering to site. It is also possible to set dynamic role, but you need to use filter hook for that, You can specify domain based role by using our filter hook: user_meta_field_config

Action and Filter Hooks

2. UMP provide email verification feature on user registration. So if someone intend to use “XYZ@mycompany.com”, can not verify their email if they are not. And role is assigned when they are registering(although admin can change other user role anytime). So if user change their email, it won’t reflect to role.

Thanks.

Thanks for number 1.

On number 2, besides on registration, if they change their email is there a verification that can get sent out before it actually is changed?

Thanks

So far, there is no email change verification by default. UMP provide profile update notification email. You can set email content through UMP Email Notification Area, If user update profile as well as change their email, both admin and user can get email notification.

If you really need verification on email change, We have action and filter hook: user_meta_after_user_update, user_meta_pre_user_update by which you can modify the behavior by writing own codes.

Thanks.

I just bought the pro version today and can do almost all I need, except I need one registration form to create an Author, and another to Create a Contributor.

I’ve tried using the “role” field as a hidden field to no avail. I also tried the “hook” in another thread, and all that does is creates role as “none”.

Is there detailed instructions on setting users roles based on the form they fill out? Or can someone help me unlock this feature?

Thanks!
