As per your latest question, you will need to use these in tandem with each other, and make sure to define your redirect within your argument array to make sure the user is directed back to the page from which they logged in.
FINAL UPDATE: Enter this in your functions.php file and utilize as you see fit. This will allow you to output information according to the actual role of your user. This is also assuming that your plugin is creating actual custom roles. If not, you will have to utilize the Add Role Function:
function get_user_role()
{
global $current_user;
$user_roles = $current_user->roles;
$user_role = array_shift($user_roles);
return $user_role;
}
Then in the template of the page you want:
<?php
if(is_user_logged_in())
{
switch(get_user_role())
{
case 'customer' :
//CUSTOMER DISPLAY
break;
case 'subscriber' :
//SUBSCRIBER DISPLAY
break;
default :
//OTHER TYPE OF USER DISPLAY
}
}
else
{
//NO LOGGED USER DISPLAY
}
?>

I am working on a Wordpress site with Woocommerce. I am using this function inside functions.php to redirect everyone who visits my store to login since it is a private area. Once the person logs in, they should be redirected to the store again. I have the following code implemented, which works for me to get all those trying to navigate my store to log in, I need to modify this code so that once logged in, it redirects me to the store page in woocommerce, in my case the page of the store is called "tienda".
To clarify: Users who are not registered or logged in, should not be able to see the store or cart or anything from woocommerce, I already implemented this with a wp-members plugin, if they try to navigate these woocommerce urls, they must go to login. When you have already logged in, you should go to the store, in my case you should not redirect to the previous link, but must inevitably go to the page called "tienda".
On the other hand, I would like to know if my function is missing something or is well built. Thank you!
function loggedoutuser_redirect() {
if (
! is_user_logged_in()
&& (is_woocommerce() || is_cart() || is_checkout())
) {
header('Location: ' . wp_login_url());
exit;
}
}
add_action('template_redirect', 'loggedoutuser_redirect');
function woocommerce_login_redirect_custom( $redirect, $user ) {
$redirect = wc_get_page_permalink( 'shop' );
return $redirect;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_login_redirect', 'woocommerce_login_redirect_custom', 10, 2 );
Paste this above snippet at the end of your active child theme functions.php file or else if you are good in plugin development then create a custom plugin.
Snippet Explanation:
Create a custom function to redirect after logged in
Fetch the shop URL using WooCommerce helper function wc_get_page_permalink( 'shop' ) and assign it to the variable $redirect
Then return the URL
Hook the custom function to the filter hook woocommerce_login_redirect
Note: You can check the user role inside our custom function then based on the role you can redirect it to the dashboard if he is administrator else to the shop page.
Good Day,
I have been trying to add verification badge to WordPress users but I no success. I tried using administrator to do the testing by checking if user has role administrator and trying to enter code here update_user_meta (display_name) but I wasn't able to add icons to the display name.
I have as well tried creating a custom field in user profile called verify_user (text field) .... In which I entered the value "verified" and saved ... I have been searching for hooks to use but haven't seen one. I'm not sure which hook/filter to use here
Please is there any solution to adding this verification icon to author's display name in which when the word "verified" is entered into the custom field created in user profile or any other approach available (e.g if user has specific role). I don't mind if the little structure I wrote above would be changed.
Thanks
I was able to get a solution which worked exactly as i wanted. For anyone who might have same task to tackle;
function add_verification_bagdge_to_authors($display_name) {
global $authordata;
if (!is_object($authordata))
return $display_name;
$icon_roles = array(
'administrator',
'verified_author',
);
$found_role = false;
foreach ($authordata->roles as $role) {
if (in_array(strtolower($role), $icon_roles)) {
$found_role = true;
break;
}
}
if (!$found_role)
return $display_name;
$result = sprintf('%s <i title="%s" class="fa fa-check-circle"></i>',
$display_name,
__('This is a Verified Author', 'text-domain-here')
);
return $result;
}
add_filter( 'the_author', 'add_verification_bagdge_to_authors' );
The way i was able to tackle this was to create a user role called Verified Author (using add_role() function from Wordpress Codex ), which will be the role assigned to verified author across the website. All Users with Admin Role are automatically Verified while user role has to be switched from either contributor/Author role to Verified Author.
The above code was able to do 98% of the task but when a verified author / administrator comments, their display name doesn't show the verified badge. I was able to use the below code to fix that (combining the code with a shortcode).
function my_comment_author( $author = '' ) {
// Get the comment ID from WP_Query
$comment = get_comment( $comment_ID );
if ( ! empty($comment->comment_author) ) {
if (!empty($comment->user_id)){
$user=get_userdata($comment->user_id);
$author=$user->display_name.' '. do_shortcode('[this_is_verified-sc]'); // This is where i used the shortcode
} else {
$author = $comment->comment_author;
}
} else {
$author = $comment->comment_author;
}
return $author;
}
add_filter('get_comment_author', 'my_comment_author', 10, 1);
Shortcode to return the Verified Badge if user is admin or verified author
function add_verification_bagdge_to_authors_sc($display_name) {
global $authordata;
if (!is_object($authordata))
return $display_name;
$icon_roles = array(
'administrator',
'verified_author',
);
$found_role = false;
foreach ($authordata->roles as $role) {
if (in_array(strtolower($role), $icon_roles)) {
$found_role = true;
break;
}
}
if (!$found_role)
return $display_name;
$result = sprintf('%s <i title="%s" class="fa fa-check-circle"></i>', $display_name, __('This is a Verified Author', 'text-domain-here') );
return $result;
}
add_shortcode( 'this_is_verified-sc', 'add_verification_bagdge_to_authors_sc' );
Please Note: Not all Magazine theme are properly coded / have a hard coded Block and module elements, so the verified badge might not work on their block / module element. I experienced this during the whole website design process, so we had to change up theme and the only modification i had to make to the new theme was to remove the html escape added to their block/module code, so that the icon can be rendered. i.e. in their module/block code they had something like this esc_html( the_author() ) and i removed the esc_html to have just the_author() an it all worked.
Its not really a straight forward solution but that is how i was able to tackle the task without using a plugin. Just add the codes to your functions.php file and that's it. I hope it helps someone.
Thanks to Kero for pointing me in the right direction, providing the code i was able to work with and manipulate
I want to give only two page (/home, /inbox) access to my user with role "Vendor", if user tries to access other pages than it will automatically redirect to "/inbox" page, I put the below code to achieve the functionality but after adding this to function.php, site again n again redirect and finally dies with message "Page isn't properly redirected". please suggest what is wrong with my tried code or any other solution.
function vendor_redirect() {
global $post;
if(current_user_can('Vendor') && !in_array($post->slug,array("home","inbox"))) {
wp_safe_redirect('/inbox');
}
}
add_action('template_redirect', 'vendor_redirect');
The main issue the way I tried to get the page slug, the correct way to get the slug is "$post->post_name". also I put exit after wp_safe_redirect as well because codex suggest that:
function vendor_redirect() {
global $post;
if(current_user_can('Vendor') && !in_array($post->post_name,array("home","inbox"))) {
wp_safe_redirect(get_permalink(get_page_by_path( 'inbox' )));
exit;
}
}
add_action('template_redirect', 'vendor_redirect');
I have been working on a client's WordPress Website and last day my client want to hide navigation menu and pages from author/contributor categories.
I have searched and tried some of the plugin but didn't get the exact thing. Please let me know what should i use to hide some pages from user and from navigation.
Only Admin can see all the pages and other members should see only 1 section that is allowed to visible for them.
Thank You
use this plugin to manage All roll:

Here is the Complete function for removing each Menu and submenu from wp-admin for another user:
function remove_menus() {
global $menu, $submenu;
$restricted = array(__('Dashboard'), __('Profile'), __('Users'), __('Tools'), __('Comments'), __('Settings'), __('Plugins')); //Here you can also define the name like Pages
end($menu);
while (prev($menu)) {
$value = explode(' ', $menu[key($menu)][0]);
if (in_array($value[0] != NULL ? $value[0] : "", $restricted)) {
unset($menu[key($menu)]);
}
}
unset($menu[5]); // this is just for example
unset($submenu['edit.php'][16]); // this is just for example
}
Now You have to put a conditon for other user i.e:
$thisusername = $current_user->user_login; // this is to get the current user login
if (($thisusername == "user123")) {
add_action('admin_menu', 'remove_menus');
}
Note: You can find many plugins but all of them are not in depth like this code.Well you can try this plugin to manage your user's roles.Capability Manager Plugin
I am looking for some advice on how I might fetch an array with a list of links to node types the currently logged in user is allowed to create.
My client wants these links to populate a custom dropdown list which sits on the user profile page.
Just in case I don't manage to talk him out of it, I would like some technique/information to go on.
You will have to create a custom module. If you are creating your own module, this short snippet will give you an array ($types) with the links to content types the logged in user can create (D6). If the user cannot create any content types it will show a message:
<?php
$types = array();
foreach (node_get_types('types', NULL, TRUE) as $type) {
if (node_access('create', $type->type)) {
$types[$type->type] = l($type->name, 'node/add/' . str_replace('_', '-', $type->type));
}
}
if (count($types) == 0) {
drupal_set_message('You cannot create any content types!', 'warning');
}
?>
