i4w_nicename

Usage

This filter hook enables you to influence and manipulate the WordPress field ‘user_nicename’ when the user is first created.

Unlike the “i4w_alternate_role” hook, this setting doesn’t get updated each time a user logs. The hook is only called once upon initial login so as not to disturb any other function which may rely on this setting (i.e. BuddyPress).

Parameters

iMember360 will pass the following parameters to your filter function:

ParameterDescription
$nicenameContains the default WordPress field value of “user_nicename”.
$first_nameContains the default WordPress field value of “first_name”, which is obtained from Keap (FirstName).
$last_nameContains the default WordPress field value of “last_name”, which is obtained from Keap (LastName).
$arrINFUArray containing the contact record fields for the person who just logged in.

Example

PHP
function my_i4w_nicename_hook($nicename, $first_name, $last_name, $arrINFU) {
// In this simple example, we create a "user_nicename" consisting
// of first name and last name separated by a dash
return trim($first_name) . '-' . trim($last_name);
}
add_filter('i4w_nicename', 'my_i4w_nicename_hook', 10, 4);
