Another attempt! What I really need is a variation of the xprofile_sync_wp_profile function that takes $fullname directly from the registration form and can be executed on user_register.

That shouldn’t be too hard, right?

function synchro_wp_usermeta() {

global $bp, $wpdb;



$fullname = GET FROM THE REGISTRATION FORM INPUT

$space = strpos( $fullname, ' ' );



if ( false === $space ) {

$firstname = $fullname;

$lastname = '';

} else {

$firstname = substr( $fullname, 0, $space );

$lastname = trim( substr( $fullname, $space, strlen($fullname) ) );

}



update_usermeta( $bp->loggedin_user->id, 'nickname', $fullname );

update_usermeta( $bp->loggedin_user->id, 'first_name', $firstname );

update_usermeta( $bp->loggedin_user->id, 'last_name', $lastname );



$wpdb->query( $wpdb->prepare( "UPDATE {$wpdb->users} SET display_name = %s WHERE ID = %d", $fullname, $bp->loggedin_user->id ) );

$wpdb->query( $wpdb->prepare( "UPDATE {$wpdb->users} SET user_url = %s WHERE ID = %d", bp_core_get_user_domain( $bp->loggedin_user->id ), $bp->loggedin_user->id ) );

}

add_action( 'user_register', 'synchro_wp_usermeta' );

I have another plugin that also takes data from the registration form. That plugin has this in the code: $input_data. Is that standard wp? There’s nothing about it in the Codex.

That other plugin has this function, minus irrelevant bits:

function subscribe($input_data) {



// $post_data = array();

foreach ($input_data as $varname => $varvalue) {

$post_data[$varname] = $varvalue;

}



}

$post_data='action=subscribe&group_ids[]'.$this->lid.'&email_address='.$this->email_id.'&firstname='.$this->name_id;

So in my case that last line would become something like this?:

$post_data= 'first_name='.$this->first_name;

Of course somehow put together in one function. Like this?:

function synchro_wp_usermeta($input_data) {

global $bp, $wpdb;



$post_data = array();

foreach ($input_data as $varname => $varvalue) {

$post_data[$varname] = $varvalue;

}



$fullname = $post_data[fullname];

$space = strpos( $fullname, ' ' );



if ( false === $space ) {

$firstname = $fullname;

$lastname = '';

} else {

$firstname = substr( $fullname, 0, $space );

$lastname = trim( substr( $fullname, $space, strlen($fullname) ) );

}



update_usermeta( $bp->loggedin_user->id, 'nickname', $fullname );

update_usermeta( $bp->loggedin_user->id, 'first_name', $firstname );

update_usermeta( $bp->loggedin_user->id, 'last_name', $lastname );



$wpdb->query( $wpdb->prepare( "UPDATE {$wpdb->users} SET display_name = %s WHERE ID = %d", $fullname, $bp->loggedin_user->id ) );

$wpdb->query( $wpdb->prepare( "UPDATE {$wpdb->users} SET user_url = %s WHERE ID = %d", bp_core_get_user_domain( $bp->loggedin_user->id ), $bp->loggedin_user->id ) );

}

add_action( 'user_register', 'synchro_wp_usermeta' );

Can anyone please help? What should I put here for the “fullname” field?:

$fullname = $post_data[fullname];

Or is the entire approach wrong?
