Disable User Email Update for Subscribers

@imran_kanjoo Use this plugin: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/modify-profile-fields-dashboard-menu-buttons/

Or Use the following code:

add_action( 'user_profile_update_errors', 'prevent_email_change', 10, 3 );

function prevent_email_change( $errors, $update, $user ) {

    $old = get_user_by('id', $user->ID);

    if( $user->user_email != $old->user_email   && (!current_user_can('create_users')) )
            $user->user_email = $old->user_email;
}

Let me know if that works ??

Thank you for your reply.
The plugin hides the fields only and does not add the code similar to your code.
The provided code does not work. I have added it into child theme functions.php. I missed to mention that, I have a custom form at the front end which contains email box. specifically, I am using user registration plugin.

Sorry for that @imran_kanjoo ??

Yeah, the plugin is more of a workaround for people looking for a quick fix.

Can you not disable it via UI?

Let me know!

@soberbanda No, there is no such option in UI. May be I need to add some JavaScript to set it readonly. But I am afraid setting it readonly could be changed in browser as well. So there must be come code to check that similar to the code you provided previously.
Or may be I need to go for plugin support.

@imran_kanjoo That isn’t an issue with the plugin. You need a feature here.
That part of code was for core WordPress profile functionality. It won’t work incase you are using a membership plugin.

You can still try and ask here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/plugin/user-registration/
Have a good day ??
