About database prefix
-
I’m using «User Registration» in a site that have several custom fields for users. I need to include some of these fields in the registration form. I dragged and drop a text field and add the custom field name ‘user_phone’, that is the user meta I’m using in one my custom fields.
The issue here is that «User Registration» add a prefix with ‘user_registration_{$field_name}’, in my case the final name of field was ‘user_registration_user_phone’. Is there a way to disable or override this prefix with an empty string to connect the form field with the one I created?

Hi @rumesh38,
I thought to do that, but I don’t wanted to have duplicate row in database. I wrote a solution without touch the plugin code, I used the action hook ‘user_registration_after_register_user_action’ that “User Registration” has built-in:
/** * USER REGISTRATION / Save data in Custom Field * This function allow to save the data of a field from "User Registration" form * to a custom field you already have in your site and then delete the database row * that "User Registration" created to avoid duplicate rows. Following the same workflow, * you can setup all the fields you need. */ // Preparing the function to trigger when user registrate throught "User Registration" form function mytheme_update_fields_from_user_registration( $form_data, $form_id, $user_id) { // Check the ID of Form to trigger the code for a particular form // You can get the ID from shortcode: [user_registration_form id="150"] if($form_id == 150) { // Get data from 'user_registration_user_phone' field just created $user_phone = get_user_meta($user_id, 'user_registration_user_phone', true); // Update our custom field from "User Registration" field update_user_meta($user_id, 'user_phone', $user_phone); // Delete the data of "User Registration" field delete_user_meta($user_id, 'user_registration_user_phone'); } } // Trigger the function when a user registrate throught "User Registration" form add_action( 'user_registration_after_register_user_action', 'mytheme_update_fields_from_user_registration', 10, 3 );Cheers!
EDIT: This code should be save in function.php or even better in a custom plugin. 😉
