Thanks Brajesh 🙂

I could have written my question better; sorry about that! Forget about checkbox on Welcome page. After thinking things though a bit more clearly, I think this is a better description of what I am trying to achieve.

I would like to have a “checktandc” page, which everyone is taken to (very briefly) on logon, with the page load calling a function to read the value of the “T&C Accepted” field (as I have called it), and then depending on the state of the field:

1) If the value of the checkbox is 0 or false, the user is immediately redirected to the proper “Terms & Conditions” page, which has “Accept” and “Reject” buttons at the bottom. Then:

a) If “Accept” button clicked, user immediately redirected to the “Welcome” page (and a function using xprofile_set_field_data is used to update the “T&C Accepted” field), so the “Terms & Conditions” page is bypassed on next login and user taken to “Welcome” page almost immediately.

b) If “Reject” accepted, user is taken to the “Home” page.

2) If the value of the checkbox is 1 or true, then the user is redirected to the Welcome page.

Calling the function: xprofile_set_field_data($field_id, $user_id, $value );
looks great to set the value of the checkbox to 1 or true when someone clicks the “Accept” button on the “Terms and Conditions” page.

What function do I need to use to READ the value of the field, from the “checktandc” page? I was expecting a something like “xprofile_read_field_data()” but that does not appear to exist?

Also, I am not sure on the easiest way to set up the automatic redirect, depending on the state of the field, from the “checktandc” page?

Hi Brajesh,

Thanks so much for your code! I really very much appreciate it and your quick response 🙂

I think that I can handle the form (and I enjoy a challenge). I will try and get it all working, and let you know if I have, or have had a problem with something.

Kind regards,

Richard.

Hi Brajesh,
I am happy to say I have got it all working the way I want, without using forms, but shortcodes for functions I have written.

After login, the user is taken to my “checktandc” page which calls [g4wkw_check_tanc]:

// [g4wkw_check_tanc]
// function to try and handle conditional T&C Display 
// called from checktandc page /login-logout/checktandc/
function g4wkw_check_tanc_field () {
    $user = wp_get_current_user();
	$user_login = $user->user_login;
	$my_str = $user_login;
	$user_lc = strtolower($my_str);
	
	$term_page_id  = 3583;   // "T&C" page /login-logout/tc/ - post=3583
	$welcome_page_id = 2661; // "Welcome!" page /login-logout/welcome/ - post=2661
	$term_field_id = 15;     // field_id=15 from mouseover Edit on "T&C Accepted?" field in bp-profile-setup Base.
	$tandc = 0;              // initialise variable
	
	$tandc = xprofile_get_field_data( $term_field_id, get_current_user_id() ); // value of either "Yes" or "No"
	
	// if T&C checkbox already set (ticked)
	if ( $tandc == 'Yes' ) {
		bp_core_redirect( get_permalink( $welcome_page_id ) );  // Redirect to "Welcome!" page
		return;
	}	else {
		bp_core_redirect( get_permalink( $term_page_id ) );  // Redirect to "T&C" page
		return;
	}	
    return;
}
add_shortcode('g4wkw_check_tanc', 'g4wkw_check_tanc_field');

That redirects to either the T&C page or Welcome page, depending on the field. The T&C page goes to a “T&C Rejected” page if they click “Reject T&C” button, or “Welcome” page if they click “Accept T&C”.

The “Welcome” page calls another shortcode [g4wkw_process_accepttandc] to set the field and add the user to a ‘termsok’ usergroup (for use in content control).

// [g4wkw_process_accepttandc]
// shortcode to try and get value of the "T&C Accepted?" field
function g4wkw_process_accepttandc_data () {
	$welcome_page_id = 2661;          // "Welcome!" page /login-logout/welcome/ - post=2661
	$term_field_id = 15;              // field_id=15 from mouseover Edit on "T&C Accepted?" (tandc) field in bp-profile-setup Base.
	$user_id = get_current_user_id(); // get current user_id
	$tandc = 1;                       // initialise variable for tandc field to 1 ('Yes')
	
	xprofile_set_field_data($term_field_id, $user_id, $tandc ); // sets tanc field to 1 ('Yes')
	
	// code to add logged-in user to 'termsok' usergroup (for content control enabling)
	$user = get_user_by( 'ID', $user_id );
	$user->add_role( 'termsok' );
	
    return;
}
add_shortcode('g4wkw_process_accepttandc', 'g4wkw_process_accepttandc_data');

Hope that makes sense.
Regards,
Richard.
