I have a challenge creating a title for this tutorial, so to describe what it covers, I recently had a question regarding how to dynamically put a redirect back to the original content into the link to the login page.  In this instance, the user had customized how they were using the plugin and rather than having the login in place of blocked content as is the default, they had a link to the login page.  Continue Reading →

Feature Updates

  • Added WP user fields user_nicename, display_name, and nickname to the $fields array, defaults to $username for backward compatibility.
  • Updated field manager process to allow user_nicename, display_name, and nickname to be added via the fields manager as WP native fields
  • Added wpmem_register_data filter for $fields to allow filtering of all fields prior to new user insertion, including above new fields (added updates to registration function to make better use of the filter).
  • Added wpmem_pre_validate_form for $fields to allow filtering fields prior to default form field validation.
  • Begin implementation of moving bulk user management features into Users > All Users. Users > All Users screen can now activate and export users, and will show additional fields as selected in the fields manager. 
  • Added wpmem_admin_profile_heading, wpmem_admin_profile_field, and wpmem_admin_profile_update filters. These filters are all part of the user profile section.

Fixes, Patches, & Code Improvements

  • Fixed the conversion of update-profile to members-area shortcode. The bug renders all page shortcodes as members-area.
  • Fixed the activate user process for user defined passwords, a bug from 2.8.0/2.8.1.
  • Fixed a bug that can cause the sidebar login widget to not post to the correct url when a static front page is used.
  • Fixed user profile update (updates with custom checkbox don’t stay checked), an issue from 2.8.0.
  • Patch correcting the front-side registration form nonce. This patch should improve reliability while still using nonces for security.
  • Patch for the dropdown field for users running < PHP 5.3.
  • Made front-side nonce optional, defaults to off.
  • Moved utility functions out of core.php to utility file utilities.php.
  • Moved the location of the wpmem_email_notify hook so the filter comes after shortcodes are parsed.
  • Updated the registration function to rely on the values contain in $fields, allowing for the array values to be filtered.
  • Updated the registration form to accommodate registration function updates.
  • Improved auto excerpt function screens for unclosed common html tags and provides a closing tag if none exists.
  • Improved export process to wrap fields with double quotes – fixes issues if field contains a comma.

Working with Templates: Block a Category Archive Loop Advanced

· ·

This post builds on the example we looked at in Working with Templates: Block a Category Archive Loop.  That example describes how to replace the results of the loop with a message directing the user to login.  Instead of replacing with a message, this example will show you how to replace with the WP-Members login form.

The tricky part in this example is that you can’t just put the login form in without modification.  Unmodified, it will post to the URL of the first post in the loop of posts.  So we’ll want to filter the form to replace that with the link to the category archive we are showing.  Continue Reading →

Working with Templates: Block a Category Archive Loop

· ·

In this example of integrating WP-Members features into WordPress Templates we will focus on the category template category.php.

With the default way of using WP-Members, your loop of a category would display titles and post excerpts, leading readers to the individual posts to either login or register.  But suppose you want to limit all of that, including titles and excerpts on the category.

We will take the default (Twenty Twelve) category.php template and add a condition to it, and if the user is not logged it, we will direct the user to the login page (created with the WP-Members page=”login” shortcode), which will redirect the user back to the category page upon successful login. Continue Reading →
