Topic Tag: User-registration forms

Problem:

The issue here is that the customer wanted admins to be able to edit other users through the frontend.

Solution:

This is actually possible by providing the id of the user to edit.

Example

[cred_user_form form='1519' form_name='Edit User' post='5']

Where the post value is the user id, so changing the number will determine which user is to be edited.

Combining this concept with the link version and a view loop to display users you can allow admins to edit all the users on the site.

So we would have a link version for a CRED form like this

[cred_link_user_form form='1519' form_name='Edit User' post='1' text='Edit %TITLE%' target='_self']

To modify this for use in a loop you simple need to replace the post=1 with the user id shortcode you just use this shortcode [wpv-user field="ID"]

The final code would be

[cred_link_user_form form='1519' form_name='Edit User' post='[wpv-user field="ID"]' text='Edit %TITLE%' target='_self']

Problem:

The problem here is that CRED isn't sending out the notifications through a specific email field provided in the form, however the test emails gets sent.

Solution:

This is an indication to me that the email custom field might be empty so you will need to check if an email is actually being provided for CRED to send off the mails.
