    Hey,
    I hope you are fine. I was working in WordPress and I want to insert user information for that I use the ‘wp_insert_user()’ function. It was working fine a few days ago then suddenly this function starts generating 0 instead of the user id. What is the issue? and why this function is behaving like this. ?

    $user = wp_insert_user($params); //this generate 0 everytime

    Hi, usamakhalid, I see from https://developer.ww.wp.xz.cn/reference/functions/wp_insert_user/ that somebody experienced an issue, as:

    The user_url length in database is limited to 100.

    But wp_insert_user won’t return a WP_Error if this size is exceeded, it returns 0.

    If that wasn’t the culprit, I would investigate how wp_insert_user returns values, specifically with these lines of its function implementation:

    
if ( $update ) {
        if ( $user_email !== $old_user_data->user_email ) {
            $data['user_activation_key'] = '';
        }
        $wpdb->update( $wpdb->users, $data, compact( 'ID' ) );
        $user_id = (int) $ID;
    } else {
        $wpdb->insert( $wpdb->users, $data );
        $user_id = (int) $wpdb->insert_id;
    }

    As this is where $user_id is set prior to being return if no problems exist, I believe.

    Hy @plantprogrammer I don’t understand that this function is working a few days ago. Then why it is not creating a new user and returning 0 instead of an error. ?
