Wp Job Manager & Listify Theme

    Hello, on the theme listify you can use wp-job manager for listings. When a new user creates a listing it automatically registers the user to my site.

    The data collected from the listing page is only the username and email of the user. How do you get the First and Last Name to appear on user registration via the listing page?

    As of right now, the only way to do this is a manual process of entering each usernames first and last name into the users data. I collect the users full name in the listing data as a required field, but it doesn’t sync with the users tab in wp-admin.

    In reference, when a user registers to my site (woocommerce) it requires and tracks the users First and Last name, Username and Email and stores it all.

    From the listings page registration, how can we add the first and last name to ensure it is stored for each user?

    You can use the “job_manager_create_account_data” filter to alter what data gets passed to the “wp_insert_user” function:

    https://github.com/Automattic/WP-Job-Manager/blob/1.24.0/wp-job-manager-functions.php#L412-L420

    By adding “first_name” and “last_name” items to the array, you can programmatically add those elements to the user profile.

    Having said that, we aren’t able to help actually write custom code like this. You may want to look into one of these services:

    Hey Adam – Thank you for your reply ??

    Simple enough!

    Can you kindly confirm if I can place this file in the child-theme to save it from being removed on future updates?

    What do you recommend?

    Can you please confirm the following is correct:

    $new_user = array(
    ‘user_login’ => $username,
    ‘user_pass’ => $password,
    ‘user_email’ => $email,
    ‘first_name’ => $firstname,
    ‘last_name’ => $lastname,
    ‘role’ => $role

    I applied the above and tested, however it is not registering on the listing creation page when a new user registers.

    Can you assist kindly?

    Yeah, I’d probably put it in your child theme’s functions.php file or even in a standalone plugin.

    I can’t, sorry. ??

    First, I’m not really a PHP developer myself, so I’m simply not sure if that’s the only code you’d need. Second, we don’t generally help with custom code writing anyway.

    Your best bet is to contact one of the services I linked to above.

    Thanks!
