    Hello,
    I very like your plugin. I use it to connect two pages into one – front/site is on our CMS, and WP for shop. Wanna to have same accounts on both, but when user logged by your plugin – role was replaced by Subscriber. On external DB we don’t have roles like a WordPress (multi-roles and add new one).

    What I want?
    If user exist in WP DB – can replace fistname and lastname on WP DB (from external), but SAVE role as it is (don’t change unmapped field). It is possible?

    Hey @deqko,

    Apologies for not getting back to you sooner.

    Been a busy week but trying to catch up with the support forum today ??

    It is not currently possible. However I could add a hook in for you that would fire so you could customise the data that gets stored when updating the user.

    This would mean that you could change the role to the current role.

    Would this be of interest to you? If so I can add this feature to the backlog and I’ll give you a code snippet to make the specific change you require.

    Thanks,

    Tom

    Haven’t heard back from you for a while so I’m going to assume this is not required.

    If not, don’t hesitate to get back in contact and we’ll see what we can do ??

    Thanks,

    Tom ??

    Hello,

    Hey @kzkggaara,

    As I suggested to @deqko, I could put a custom hook in that would allow you to customise what data is saved for the user so you can add your own logic.

    If you get your login working from your other post and feel this would be useful I’ll start looking at adding the feature and writing you a bit of pseudocode that would get you started and allow you to customise this further.

    Let me know your thoughts ??

    Thanks,

    Tom
