Automatic add user to list after aprove account

[Mark Gerritzen]

Hi,

I use Ultimate member and the Newsletter plugin, users that register has to be approved by a admin. After that the user should be automaticly added to a certain list, is that possible? Or can I maybe write a script to update the usermeta after approve.

Hope someone can help me,
Kind regards,

After approval you should retrieve the subscriber ($subscriber = Newsletter::instance()->get_user_by_wp_user_id(…)) and than change and save the subscriber:
$subscriber->list_4 = ‘1’;
Newsletter::instance()->save_user($subscriber).

Hi Stefano,

Sorry for my late reaction I was very busy with other projects. I will try the option you said. Thank you for that, if it won’t work I will come back here.

Kind regards,

Hi Stefano,

I tried what you said, I also changed your code after finding something in the docs. I used both codes but they give me the same error, see below:

$subscriber = Newsletter::instance()->get_user($user_id);
$subscriber->list_2 = ‘1’;
Newsletter::instance()->save_user($subscriber);

Also when I first declare the newsletter as object it isn’t working. You said it had to be get_user_by_wp_user_id() but the documentation says get_user, but both methods work.

I get the following error when approving the user:
Database error. If you were saving a newsletter try a table upgrade from the status panel.

I hope you see what’s happening,
Kind regards,
Mark
