Syncing user roles with a list

Hi, the wp users addon does not provide such feature. You should code a custom solution: wp users is changed, the role is extracted, the connected subscriber is loaded using the plugin function ($subscriber = Newsletter::instance()->get_user_by_wp_user_id(…)), update the subscriber to have the correct list based on the wp user: $subscriber->list_x = 1. Then the subscriber needs to be saved Newsletter::instance()->save($subscriber).

Thank you so much @satollo ! Could you tell me if I’m on the right path?

To get all current users in the correct role (not just ones that are updated), I did a a dry run of all the current users & looped through them, with a conditional for each one of the roles I want added?

//With proper args so that all users are queried, currently missing this
$user_query = new WP_User_Query( $args );

foreach ($user_query as $user){

$subscriber = Newsletter::instance()->get_user_by_wp_user_id($user->id))

//Role query from https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/5048  
if ( in_array( 'custom-role1', (array) $user->roles ) ){ 
$subscriber->custom_list1 = 1; 
}

if ( in_array( 'custom-role2', (array) $user->roles ) ){ 
$subscriber->custom_list2 = 1; 
}

Newsletter::instance()->save($subscriber);
return;
} 

And when checking if an user is changed adjust the query and instead just do a check for when the profile is updated?

//From https://developer.www.ads-software.com/reference/hooks/profile_update/#comment-4988
function wpdocs_check_user_email_updated( $user_id ) {
 

$subscriber = Newsletter::instance()->get_user_by_wp_user_id($user_id))

//Role query from https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/5048  
if ( in_array( 'custom-role1', (array) $user->roles ) ){ 
$subscriber->custom_list1 = 1; 
}

if ( in_array( 'custom-role2', (array) $user->roles ) ){ 
$subscriber->custom_list2 = 1; 
}

Newsletter::instance()->save($subscriber);
return;
} 

add_action( 'profile_update', 'wpdocs_check_user_email_updated', 10, 2 );

I suggest to “reset” the lists before setting them accordingly the user roles:

$subscriber->list_1 =0;

$subscriber->list_2 =0;
