Adding Users to the Blog on which they Register in A BuddyPress & WordPress Multisite based Social network

Are you using BuddyPress with WordPress Multisite? Are you facing the problem that when a user registers he/she appear in the Network Admin Users list but not in your Main site/Sub site's user list. Well, I have seen this issue and here is a solution.

You can put the following code in your bp-custom.php and It will add a user to the blog on which they register (In case of BuddyPress Multi Network, BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG mode) or to the main site with proper role.

/**
 * Adds newly activated user to current blog.
 *
 * @param int $user_id user id.
 */
function bpdev_add_user_to_registering_blog( $user_id ) {

	$blog_id = get_current_blog_id();

	if ( ! is_user_member_of_blog( $user_id, $blog_id ) ) {
		add_user_to_blog( $blog_id, $user_id, get_option( 'default_role' ) );
	}
}

add_action( 'bp_core_activated_user', 'bpdev_add_user_to_registering_blog' );

/**

* Adds newly activated user to current blog.

* @param int $user_id user id.

function bpdev_add_user_to_registering_blog( $user_id ) {

$blog_id = get_current_blog_id();

if ( ! is_user_member_of_blog( $user_id, $blog_id ) ) {

add_user_to_blog( $blog_id, $user_id, get_option( 'default_role' ) );

}

add_action( 'bp_core_activated_user', 'bpdev_add_user_to_registering_blog' );

When the user account is activated, It adds the user to the blog on which they have activated their account.

Have fun & wish you all Merry Christmas friends 🙂

Hi
Is it possible set default role not "Subscriber" but for example "Contributor" without plugins for Multisite?

  Hi Roman,
  Thank you for asking.
  Just change this line
  [sourcecode language="php"]
  add_user_to_blog( $blog_id, $user_id, get_option('default_role') );
  [/sourcecode]
  to
  [sourcecode language="php"]
  add_user_to_blog( $blog_id, 'contributor' );
  [/sourcecode]
  and that will be done.
  hope that helps.

  Hi Vishal,
  My apologies for delayed reply.
  You should try adding on this hook 'bp_auto_activate_after_login'

Thanks for your reply. highly appreciated. How do i excatly add bp_auto_activate_after_login in the code? tried googling but bp_auto_activate_after_login is not referenced anywhere else. i tried this but didnt work out:
add_action( 'bp_core_activated_user', 'bpdev_add_user_to_registering_blog');
function bpdev_add_user_to_registering_blog( $user_id ) {
$blog_id = get_current_blog_id();
if( !is_user_member_of_blog($user_id, $blog_id ) )
bp_auto_activate_after_login( $blog_id, $user_id, get_option('default_role') );
}
