Sorry for my English. I need your help, if anyone has the time. I would need code to add a category upon new user account and create it in the user's name. thanks a lot for your help
I've searched a bit for information but it's beyond my skills.
add_action('user_register', 'create_taxonomy_name_user'); function create_taxonomy_name_user( $user_id ) { }
Add the function in your active theme functions.php file.
function create_term_from_username($user_id) {
// Get the user data
$user_info = get_userdata($user_id);
//Change if you want term from any other user data
$username = $user_info->user_login;
//Define in which taxonomy we want to add term
$taxonomy = 'category';
// Create a term based on the username
$term_args = array(
'slug' => sanitize_title($username), // Sanitize the username to make it suitable for a term slug
);
// Insert the term and get its ID
$term_id = wp_insert_term($username, $taxonomy, $term_args);
// Check if the term was created successfully
if (is_wp_error($term_id)) {
// Handle error if term creation fails
error_log('Error creating term for user ' . $username . ': ' . $term_id->get_error_message());
}
}
add_action('user_register', 'create_term_from_username');
