# PLL_Admin->init_user() called before $wp->init

 * Polylang calls `PLL_Admin->init_user()` before `$wp->init`, causing other plugins(
   such as BuddyPress and bbPress) to fire warnings, as they are deeply tied into
   the users system.
 * Fired warning:
    `bp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly. The current user
   is being initialized without using $wp->init(). Please see Debugging in WordPress
   for more information. (This message was added in version 1.7.)`
 * Call stack:
 *     ```
       bp_setup_current_user()
       do_action('set_current_user')
       wp_set_current_user()
       get_currentuserinfo()
       wp_get_current_user()
       get_current_user_id()
       PLL_Admin->init_user()
       do_action('setup_theme')
       ```
   
 * Is `PLL_Admin->init_user()` required to be fired so early?
 * WP version: **3.9.1**
    Polylang version: **1.5** BuddyPress version: 2.0.1

 * Hi!
 * I am aware of this warning sent by BuddyPress / bbPress. I have a different view
   than the BuddyPress authors on this, especially because BuddyPress rises this
   warning against the WordPress core itself 🙂
    See [https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2309](https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2309)
 * So to answer your question `PLL_Admin->init_user()` is fired early to allow to
   choose your admin language based on your user preferences.
