Add additional role to multisite users

[moko]

Hi,

I use WP Ultimo on my multisite install. I have URE Pro activated.

To add another role to a user, I have to do it manually.

WP Ultimo has “subscription plans” and I can assign just one custom role via URE for each plan. However, I want to add another custom_role upon registration via code – since this is the only way I can think of right now.

In summary, upon users’ registration, they should have the role I assigned from WP Ultimo AND the other custom role via code automatically.

I want to add the code via a normal plugin or MU-plugins.

I look forward to hearing your solution(s).

Kind regards,
Mo

PS: Vladimir, I am open to share my website’s credentials for you to take a closer look.

Hi,

May be this code will give a starting point:

if (is_multisite()) {
    add_action( 'wpmu_activate_user', 'add_secondary_role', 10, 1 );
} else {
    add_action( 'user_register', 'add_secondary_role', 10, 1 );
}

 
function add_secondary_role( $user_id ) {
 
    $user = get_user_by('id', $user_id);
    $user->add_role('custom_role_id');
 
}

I will be out of office until July 31st.
