User Role auto update/change

I am in need of the exact same thing…also did you see this snippet?

It syncs the UM role to a WP role…I think we need someone who can help reverse this to trigger on a WP role change and if a user exists in UM then change the corresponding role in UM.

Hello;

I have the exact same problem…

I have seen the snippet of code to be placed in the themes functions.php file for syncing when a UM role changes. I think all we need is to reverse that.

here is the snippet from your old forums.

add_action(‘um_after_user_is_approved’, ‘sync_um_and_wp_role’, 99 );
function sync_um_and_wp_role( $user_id ) {
$role = get_user_meta( $user_id, ‘role’, true);
if ( $role == ‘member’ ) {
$wp_user_object = new WP_User( $user_id );
$wp_user_object->set_role( ‘student’ );
}
}

I think the this would help many people requesting this help
