dropdown role selector
-
hi
In the user role dropdown field, only the subscriber role can be selected, and other WordPress roles such as customer, editor, etc. cannot be selected. Is it possible to remove this restriction so that any role can be selected?

You can use field types “Roles (Dropdown)” and “Roles (Radio)” to set the user role in the registration form or change it in the profile form. But not all roles are available. Role fields may contain user roles created by Ultimate Member and predefined role Subscriber. User roles created by third-party plugins are excluded to avoid conflicts. Predefined roles with high access levels (such as Administrator or Editor) are excluded to avoid security vulnerability.

You can extend the editable User roles list by this filter hook
/** * UM hook * * @type filter * @title um_extend_editable_roles * @description Extend Editable User Roles * @input_vars * [{"var":"$editable_roles","type":"array","desc":"Editable Roles Keys"}] * @change_log * ["Since: 2.6.0"] * @usage add_filter( 'um_extend_editable_roles', 'function_name', 10, 1 ); * @example * <?php * add_filter( 'um_extend_editable_roles', 'my_um_extend_editable_roles', 10, 1 ); * function my_um_extend_editable_roles( $editable_roles ) { * // your code here * return $editable_roles; * } * ?> */Try this code snippet
add_filter( 'um_extend_editable_roles', 'my_um_extend_editable_roles', 10, 1 ); function my_um_extend_editable_roles( $editable_roles ) { $editable_roles = array_merge( $editable_roles, array( 'editor', 'customer', 'contributor' )); return $editable_roles; }Delete your current Roles dropdown in the UM Forms Builder.
Recreate the Roles dropdown in the UM Forms Builder
and you have now added the three additional Roles.Reload the frontend Registration page with three new Roles in the dropdown.
