In a Wordpress site I need to create a custom post every time a user is created. In this post I will have an administrator adding private files to the user. I need to trigger a function that inserts a custom post after the user is created. This is the function:
function user_after_creation( $user_id ){
$user = get_user_by( 'id', $user_id );
$post_setup = array(
'post_type' => 'private_user_page',
'post_title' => $user->user_login,
'post_name' => $user->user_login,
'post_status' => 'publish',
'post_excerpt' => ''
);
wp_insert_post( $post_setup );
}
Well, I was thinking of something like this:
add_action( 'user_register', 'user_after_creation', 10, 1 );
to trigger the action, someone else suggested:
do_action( 'user_register', user_after_creation( $wpdb->insert_id ) );
But i am not really sure of what to do.
Take a look at user_register
. It is called when a user account in first registered/created and passes the user id. Should meet your needs.
