Hi @pulidomate,
By default, it’s not possible. But you can try to code it.
That said, registering users is reserved to site admin or editors. So far i understand your question, you’re talking about group admins (admins = teachers)and member types (teachers and students).
Registration and user management is a core thing for users with WP roles/capabilities. It is not the same thing as Teachers and Students within BuddyPress.
Group admins are, by default, users with a WP role of subscribers. Same thing for students. BP distinguish those users inside a group only, but for WP they still emain as “subscribers”.
May be you can use a plugin, but i haven’t tested it. Try:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/new-user-approve/
It is not necessary teachers to be registered on the website. Only to receive an email to confirm that the student belongs to his college.
I would like to do this: Student registres – send an email to the adressinserted by the student to registration form – approve the student with a link by this mail – student receives and email with the approvation.
Finally i have done this:
function activation_email( $subject, $message, $user_id, $user_email, $key ) {
$teacher = bp_get_profile_field_data('field=Teacher&user_id='.$user_id);
$activate_url = esc_url( $activate_url );
$message = sprintf( __( "Thanks for registering! To complete the activation of this account please click the following link:\n\n%1\$s\n\n", 'buddypress' ), $activate_url );
$user_email = $teacher;
wp_mail( $user_email, $subject, $message );
}
add_action( 'bp_core_sent_user_validation_email', 'activation_email', 10, 5 );
Anyone knows how can i do this with the new BuddyPress email API?
Have you already read this ?
Custom Emails
Yes, but this code doesn’t work
function activation_email( $user_id, $user_email, $key, $user_login = '' ) {
$args = array(
'tokens' => array(
'key' => $key,
'user.email' => $user_email,
'user.id' => $user_id,
),
);
if ( $user_id ) {
$to = $user_id;
} else {
$to = array( array( $user_email => $user_login ) );
}
$teacher = bp_get_profile_field_data('field=Teacher&user_id='.$user_id);
bp_send_email( 'core-user-registration', $teacher , $args );
}
add_action('bp_core_signup_send_validation_email','activation_email',99,4);
missing the first value of array activate.url because this text editor show me an error when i copy that line
Finally i have done this:
function send_mail_to_teacher($user_id, $user_login, $user_password, $user_email, $usermeta){
$key = get_user_meta( $user_id, 'activation_key', TRUE );
$first_name = bp_get_profile_field_data('field=Name&user_id='.$user_id);
$surname = bp_get_profile_field_data('field=Surname&user_id='.$user_id);
$args = array(
'tokens' => array(
'key' => $key,
'user.email' => $user_email,
'user.id' => $user_id,
'first_name' => $first_name,
'surname' => $surname,
),
);
$teacher_email = bp_get_profile_field_data('field=Teacher&user_id='.$user_id);
bp_send_email( 'sendtoteacher', $teacher_email, $args );
}
add_action('bp_core_signup_user', 'send_mail_to_teacher', 10, 5);
