Auto login after registration

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

If you are using the Email Confirmation feature then with some custom code we can automatically login the user after Email Confirmation:

1. Create an empty plugin like this: https://gist.github.com/sareiodata/76f701e01db6685829db

2. Add the following code to the end of it:

/*
 * Profile Builder - Auto Login User after Email Confirmation. Tags auto login, email confirmation
 */

add_action( 'wppb_activate_user', 'wppb_custom_autologin_redirect', 10, 3 );
function wppb_custom_autologin_redirect( $user_id, $password, $meta ){
    
    global $current_user;
    $current_user = 0;

    $token = wppb_create_onetime_token( 'pb_autologin_'.$user_id, $user_id );
    $location = home_url() . "/?pb_autologin=true&pb_uid=$user_id&pb_token=$token";
    echo "<script> window.location.replace('$location'); </script>";
}

add_action( 'init', 'wppb_custom_autologin' );

function wppb_custom_autologin(){
    if( isset( $_GET['pb_autologin'] ) && isset( $_GET['pb_uid'] ) &&  isset( $_GET['pb_token'] )  ){
        $uid = $_GET['pb_uid'];
        $token  = $_GET['pb_token'];
        require_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-includes/class-phpass.php');
        $wp_hasher = new PasswordHash(8, TRUE);
        $time = time();

        $hash_meta = get_user_meta( $uid, 'pb_autologin_' . $uid, true);
        $hash_meta_expiration = get_user_meta( $uid, 'pb_autologin_' . $uid . '_expiration', true);

        if ( ! $wp_hasher->CheckPassword($token . $hash_meta_expiration, $hash_meta) || $hash_meta_expiration < $time  ){
            die (' You are not allowed to do that. ');
            exit;
        } else {
            wp_set_auth_cookie( $uid );
            delete_user_meta($uid, 'pb_autologin' . $uid );
            delete_user_meta($uid, 'pb_autologin' . $uid . '_expiration');
            wp_redirect( home_url() . '/edit-profile/' );
            exit;
        }
    }
}

3. Install this plugin via FTP (copy it inside wp-content/plugins) or create a zip archive with it and install it via the WordPress plugin upload functionality

Inside Profile Builder Pro we have the Multiple Registration Forms module that you could use to create custom registration forms with custom fields for custom user roles and also to Automatically Login your users.

You can test this module on our demo install.

Let me know if the custom code works for you.

Best regards,

Thanks for the information.

Actually i am not using email confirmation, user will be auto confirmed once he/she submit the form. I just create a registration form with short code. I only want that after registration he/she will be auto login in the site.

Is above mentioned the only way to do this?

Thanks,
Prashant

Thanks

Hi,

Yes for the moment the custom code will work if you have Email Confirmation set to Yes. Did you tested it and it didn’t work?

Can you submit a support ticket with this issue? I will wait for your ticket and we will continue our conversation there.

Best regards,
