Reset password with just email

Chad Butler · Jan 27, 2014 ·

NOTE: if you are using version 2.9+, there is a new set of code snippets using some new filter hooks that make this process easier.

One of the requests I get most often is how can I change the plugin to have the password reset only require the user to give their email address. This especially comes up when people customize the process to use the person’s email address as their username, since a password reset form with “username” and “email” doesn’t make much sense in that situation.

Well, since version 2.8.5, there has been a filter hook in the password reset process that allows you to filter the arguments that are passed in order to reset the user’s password – wpmem_pwdreset_args. There are two stages to this demonstration, and thus two parts of the code snippet. First, we only need a form requesting the user’s email, so we will remove the “username” field from the form. Second is filtering the arguments of the password reset process so that the user’s password can be reset with only the email provided. Continue Reading →

Multiple Selection Checkboxes – Add A Section Heading (Advanced)

Chad Butler · Jan 8, 2014 ·

As of WP-Members 3.1.0, multiple selection checkbox support is an included feature in the plugin. That makes custom implementation such as described here unnecessary for most applications. I am leaving this post here however as there may continue to be users who (1) need a high level of customization that may utilize some or all of this kind of approach, and (2) for users who may not update to 3.1+ who need this support.

This tutorial is an extension of the tutorial on creating Multiple Selection Checkboxes. This tutorial will add a little snippet to one of the functions in that tutorial to show you how to add a section heading to your group of checkboxes.

The end result is to have a heading for the group of checkboxes, followed by the checkboxes with the label text to the right, much like this screenshot.

This is a slightly more advanced tutorial that the previous basic tutorial. You might try that one first.

While not overly complicated, I will work through the process step-by-step so that it is easier to understand what each section does. Continue Reading →

Add a privacy policy or a terms of service in a textarea field

Chad Butler · Nov 26, 2013 ·

The plugin has a built-in process for adding a Terms of Service popup and that can be used in a number of different ways, or could be changed completely using some different filters. But what about adding a separate Privacy Policy in a textarea field? Or including your Terms of Service in the same way? Here is a quick tutorial with some example code snippets to get you started.
