Home of WP-Members, The Original WordPress Membership Plugin
I’ve shown other code snippets for similar things – password validation at registration and having a password meet specific criteria. However, the password requirements example was geared toward a setup that was requiring this when a user changes their password (they were not allowing it to be set at registration).
So here is an example that combines the two of these elements at registration. Continue Reading →
With the new wpmem_register_form_rows filter hook introduced in 2.9, the process of dealing with multiple selection checkboxes becomes far less complicated than previously.
The previous method involved adding each checkbox as a field, and then all of the extra code we needed to handle multiple fields as one both for storing the data, handling user updates, and also in emailing admin notifications.
But 2.9 allows us to filter the rows directly in the array of rows and insert the extra html we need for this. That means you only need to create one field in the fields manager which makes handling the data much easier on the backend. I’ve even made the code snippets nearly cut-and-paste. In most cases, you should only need to specify the name for the checkbox group and the labels/checked values. Continue Reading →
The shortcode for the profile detail page is easy to install and use. It allows for you to add specific IDs and classes that you can style with CSS to get the profile looking the way you want it. Continue Reading →
Note: The User List plugin now has an option to apply a table style layout to the list. It is available in the plugin’s settings. Applying that setting automatically applies style to the list that is what is discussed in this tutorial (i.e. you don’t need to do this customization anymore). However, I have left this discussion on the site because it shows a process of customizing the layout and can be used to teach necessary concepts for customizing the plugin.
I recently was asked if the User List extension could display a table style layout with links to a more detailed user profile. My initial thought was “Great idea. How can we do that?”
CSS is a powerful tool, and with a little bit of CSS here, and a very simple filter (only for the heading), you can have a table style layout for the user list that looks like the screenshot to the left.
The screenshot was taken from the my test of how to put together such a customization. To be very honest, it took me less than 30 minutes to put this together – and that’s working from scratch. I’ll show you in this post exactly what I did, so while it might take you a little time to read, it should take you only a few minutes to implement. Continue Reading →
The User List extension has some built in features to put div tags around the various fields. You can use CSS to manipulate the layout of these elements as needed. Continue Reading →
