Easy way to Change Woocommerce default user Role.
I want to share something with you about Easy way to Change Woocommerce default user Role customer to something you need or like. I was working on LMS project so wrote down few lines of code that I want to share with you. May it help you.
Woocommerce allows WordPress user registration at checkout and my account page. It creates user by default role as customer. But for purpose of your project,sometime you may need other role other than customer. As in LMS project, I wanted user to have student role, who registers at checkout page. So not need to worry for that. Woocommerce Gives a control over it using via a filter `woocommerce_new_customer_data`.
In wp-contentpluginswoocommerceincludeswc-customer-functions.php : line 102
<?php
$new_customer_data = apply_filters( 'woocommerce_new_customer_data', array(
'user_login' => $username,
'user_pass' => $password,
'user_email' => $email,
'role' => 'customer'
) ); ?>
In above lines extracted from Woocommerce, woocommerce_new_customer_data is filter applied over $new_customer_data variable. Still user is not registered, so you can deal with users data as you wish, wp user get created.
You can filter User Role by changing value in Array ($new_customer_data) provided by woocommerce_new_customer_data filter. You must use add_filter action in you theme’s function.php file or your plugin file. Write your own function like my_new_customer_data().
Dafault format of filter is as below.
<?php add_filter( $tag, $function_to_add, $priority, $accepted_args ?>
<?php add_filter( 'woocommerce_new_customer_data', 'my_new_customer_data'); ?>
In your function just have to replace value of key index which is ‘role’. You can directly specify user role like option one as shown below or You can get default user role from WordPress default user role option(Which is in general settings) like option two.
Option one:
<?php $new_customer_data['role'] = 'student' ?>
Option two:
<?php $new_customer_data['role'] = get_option( 'default_role' ); ?>
Hence finally you just have to add below lines of code to your theme or plugin. Enjoy WordPress and Woocommerce with your project. Happy coding.
<?php
function my_new_customer_data($new_customer_data){
$new_customer_data['role'] = get_option( 'default_role' );
return $new_customer_data;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_new_customer_data', 'my_new_customer_data');
?>
