Unique ID Generation

    In this code, the user is getting a unique code with a prefix “C”, I want to add a condition in it, if a person selects their gender as “Male”, the Unique ID should have prefix “CM”, and if selects “Female”, it should be “CF”. How can I achieve this?

    add_action("user_register","um_012022_generate_unique_account_id");
function um_012022_generate_unique_account_id( $user_id ) {
   $unique_account_id = 'C-' . str_pad( $user_id, 5, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT );
   update_user_meta( $user_id, "um_unique_account_id", $unique_account_id );
}

    Thank you,

    You can try to replace your current code snippet with this code snippet
    for prefix of CF- or CM- depending on the user selected gender

    add_action( "um_user_register","um_012022_generate_unique_account_id", -1, 2 );
function um_012022_generate_unique_account_id( $user_id, $args ) {

    $prefix = 'C-';
    if ( isset( $args['gender'] ) && ! empty( $args['gender'][0] )) {
        if ( $args['gender'][0] == 'Female') {
            $prefix = 'CF-';
        }
        if ( $args['gender'][0] == 'Male') {
            $prefix = 'CM-';
        }
    }
   $unique_account_id = $prefix . str_pad( $user_id, 5, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT );
   update_user_meta( $user_id, "um_unique_account_id", $unique_account_id );
}

    Thanks a lot for the help! It is working fine. (:

    Can you tell me how I can make the generated Unique ID the username of the person who registers?

    You can try to replace your current code snippet with this code snippet.

    add_action( "um_before_save_registration_details", "um_012022_generate_unique_account_id", 10, 3 );
function um_012022_generate_unique_account_id( $user_id, $args, $form_data ) {

    global $wpdb;

    $prefix = 'C-';
    if ( isset( $args['gender'] ) && ! empty( $args['gender'][0] )) {
        if ( $args['gender'][0] == 'Female') {
            $prefix = 'CF-';
        }
        if ( $args['gender'][0] == 'Male') {
            $prefix = 'CM-';
        }
    }
    $unique_account_id = $prefix . str_pad( $user_id, 5, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT );
    $wpdb -> update( $wpdb -> users, 
                        array( 'user_login' => $unique_account_id ), 
                        array( 'ID' => $user_id ) 
                    );
    //update_user_meta( $user_id, "um_unique_account_id", $unique_account_id );
    UM()->user()->remove_cache( $user_id );
    um_fetch_user( $user_id );   
}
