    Hey Im trying to execute code that saves users location when he logs in the site.
    I tried adding this to wp-forge/function.php

    $cu = wp_get_current_user();
$login = $cu->login;

add_action( 'wp_login', 'add_user_location', 10, 2 );
function add_user_location( $login, $cu ) {
   /* code */
}

    I used die(); inside the code to check if it executes or not and it doesnt.
    Can you help me ?

    HI there,

    Unfortunately, this falls outside the scope of support I offer for WP-Forge. This is a “how to” question which I have covered here https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/support-issue-clarification?replies=1

    I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

    Thanks anyways , I found the solution online.
    Here is the final code , eventually you end up with a table containing all logged in users , with their locations based on gelocation by IP.

    function addUserLocation($login){
   $user = get_user_by('login',$login);

   global  $wpdb;

   $loc = json_decode( file_get_contents('https://ipinfo.io/'.$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'].'/json') )->loc;
   $latitude  = explode(',' , $loc)[0];
   $longitude = explode(',' , $loc)[1];

   $wpdb->insert(
    'locations',
   array(
     'user_id'   => $user->ID ,
	 'firstname' => $user->display_name ,
	 'lastname'  => $user->last_name,
	 'email'     => $user->user_email,
	 'latitude'  => $latitude ,
	 'longitude' => $longitude
   ),
   array(
    '%d' ,
	'%s' ,
	'%s' ,
	'%s' ,
	'%s' ,
	'%s'
   )
   );
}

function removeUserLocation(){
      global $current_user;
      global  $wpdb;
	  $wpdb->delete( 'locations', array( 'user_id' =>  $current_user->data->ID ), array( '%d' ) );

 }

add_action( 'wp_login' , 'addUserLocation', 99 );
add_action( 'clear_auth_cookie', 'removeUserLocation' , 1);
