Hooks?

I don’t quite see where I could provide an action for you to hook into. You mean the protect passwords plugin settings, when those are saved?

If you provide me with some code (modify the plugin and send it to me?) then I can add it if you wish. [email protected]

Thank you for responding.

Yes, I mean when the protect passwords plugin settings are saved.
Unfortunately, I am not yet familiar with plugin development, so I cannot provide code, thanks anyway!

I was hoping to include in my functions.php something like:

add_action('plainview_save_data', 'save_data_action', 10);
function save_data_action(...) {
... Set user-active field to 0 ...
}

Best regards,
Kostas

How about

do_action( ‘plainview_protect_passwords_settings_saved’, $form );

The $form being the html form object from which you can extract the contents of the settings. I would insert that on line 102 of the src / traits / admin_menu.php file.

Sounds good!

If you implement it (and provide some how-to guidelines) I can test it.

Thanks,
Kostas

That line you can add to the code yourself and do whatever you need to do with the $form object.

To see how to interact with the form, just look a few lines higher up in the same file.

Is there anything you need other than that, more specifically?

OK, I will test it later today and respond here.

Thanks,

Well, this is too advanced for me!
I just need a way to loop through Protected users (and then update a user field for each user), in my theme’s functions.php.
Any guidance is welcome.

Thanks,
Kostas

Ah. Try this:

$input = $form->input( ‘protected_users’ );
$protected_users = $input->get_post_value();
foreach( $protected_users … )

OK, I added:
do_action('plainview_protect_passwords_settings_saved', $form);
in line 101, just before
$this->message( 'Options saved!' );

Then in my theme’s functions.php, I added:

add_action('plainview_protect_passwords_settings_saved', 'func_plainview_protect_passwords_settings_saved', 10);

foreach($protected_users as $protected_user ) :
update_user_meta($protected_user->user_id, 'wpcf-user-active', '0');
endforeach;
}

which has no effect. Moreover, wpcf-user-active custom field value, should alternate between 0 and 1, depending on the user being checked to be protected or not.

Any more ideas?

Thanks again,
Kostas

The $protected_user array is an array of user IDs already, so:

update_user_meta($protected_user, 'wpcf-user-active', '0');

Yes, it works now, thanks!

One last bit please. In the foreach, if user was not protected, I need:
update_user_meta($protected_user, 'wpcf-user-active', '0');
If user was protected and now is not, I need:
update_user_meta($protected_user, 'wpcf-user-active', '1');
How should I implement this?

Thanks again,
Kostas

Ooh… That’s … more difficult. Perhaps if we didn’t use the $form and instead consulted with the plugin directly? Start by removing the do_action line you added.

Then, in the same file, on line 98 add

do_action( 'plainview_protect_passwords_pre_save_settings', $this );

and line 104

do_action( 'plainview_protect_passwords_post_save_settings', $this );

The result should be the pre action, then three lines of saving options using update_site_option, and then the post action.

Retrieve the array of protected user IDs using:

function my_plainview_protect_passwords_pre_save_settings( $plugin )
{
 $user_ids = $plugin->get_site_option( 'protected_users' );
 foreach( $user_ids as $user_id )
  ...
}

So pre is before the options are saved, so you can set user active 0, and then post is when you can set 1.

Excellent, it works!
To recap:

add_action('plainview_protect_passwords_pre_save_settings', 'my_plainview_protect_passwords_pre_save_settings', 10);
function my_plainview_protect_passwords_pre_save_settings( $plugin ) {
	$user_ids = $plugin->get_site_option( 'protected_users' );
	foreach( $user_ids as $user_id ) :
		update_user_meta($user_id, 'wpcf-user-active', '1');
	endforeach;
}
add_action('plainview_protect_passwords_post_save_settings', 'my_plainview_protect_passwords_post_save_settings', 10);
function my_plainview_protect_passwords_post_save_settings( $plugin ) {
	$user_ids = $plugin->get_site_option( 'protected_users' );
	foreach( $user_ids as $user_id ) :
		update_user_meta($user_id, 'wpcf-user-active', '0');
	endforeach;
}

So, can you please include those two lines of code (in src/traits/admin_menu.php) in a plugin update?

Thank you very much indeed,
Kostas

Will do!

Included in v1.4 of the plugin.
