I have created a WordPress shortcode in functions.php that looks like this:
function user_email() {
}
add_shortcode( 'user_email', 'user_email' );
This captures the logged-in WordPress user's email address. I want to pass that email address in a query string, so the end result would look like this:
https://ofcoursebooks.com/bmf?email=ashli#example.com
To do that, I was hoping to pass the email address via the short code:
https://ofcoursebooks.com/bmf?email=[user_email]
That doesn't seem to be working though... it just passes the actual [user_email] text.
What did I miss?

I'm creating a page in which you submit a Contact Form 7 to the email based on what email is added to the job_email field via my Advanced Custom Fields.
I have attempted to add the form via the PHP shortcode like this
[email* dynamic-email class:email-address placeholder "Email Address*"]
echo do_shortcode('[contact-form-7 id="234" title="Dynamic Submit CV" dynamic-email="'.get_field( 'job_email' ).'"]' );
The fields all display correctly, and upon submitting the email successfully, the email never receives the form. Meaning I am totally missing something here.
If I understand correctly, what you are after is send a notification with the entry details to the email address inputted on the job_email field.
If so, what you want to do is to set up an email on the email tab and in the To: setting put [job_email].
Update
As you stated in the comment, the email has to be the one set in the backend. You can guarantee the email notification to be sent to the ACF-based email via hooks, specifically the wpcf7_mail_components hook.
function so57013385_mail_components( $components, $number ) {
$job_mail = get_field( ... );
$components['recipient'] = (array) $components['recipient'];
$components['recipient'][] = $job_mail;
return $components;
};
add_filter( 'wpcf7_mail_components', 'so57013385_mail_components', 10, 2 );
Note: I'm casting the $components['recipient'] variable to array just to make sure the email is appended correctly, as this parameter is passed directly to wp_mail(), which can receive a string or an array. Also, you might need to add more validations on the form ID, sanitization, etc. The above code is not tested.
In WordPress, I have custom registration site for new users. Upon registration, there is an optional checkbox to subscribe to our newsletter. As far as I understand it, it adds the value of the checkbox to the user_meta table (the whole thing has been coded by a company in India, which I woould very much prefer to not involve again, since they delayed their work time and time again and didn't do good work after all).
The corresponding code snippet in my child theme's functions.php looks like this:
<?php echo '<div class="form-row form-row-wide">
<input type="checkbox" name="inter_offers" value="yes"> '; _e('I would like to subscribe to the Kurth Electronic newsletter.','kurth-child'); echo '<br></div>';
return $fields; ?>
add_action('woocommerce_created_customer','adding_extra_reg_fields');
function adding_extra_reg_fields($user_id) {
extract($_POST);
update_user_meta($user_id, 'billing_inter_offers',$inter_offers);
} ?>
(I have left out lines irrelevant to this issue.)
Now, this value is saved internally, but not displayed to me. I would like to show the value in an E-Mail or notification generated by WordPress when the user completes registration, so that we can manually add them to our newsletter list whenever someone chooses to subscribe to the newsletter. The problem is that I only have a limited knowledge of PHP and I don't know where to start.
I should also note that this is not done via the standard WorPress registration form, but by a WooCommerce registration form (I have disabled the standard WordPress registration for security reasons).
I tried using the "Better Notifications" plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/bnfw/) for custom notifications whenever a new user completes their registration, but it ignores any php code that I add to the custom notifications body to display the user_meta data.
Any help would be appreciated.
Because the registration is done via woocomerce you may have to look for a notification PlugIN that works with woocomerce, the one you have may just work properly with wordpress core version!
You also could generate a mail via php in the function, so that you get a message with the user mail adress, but i think without php knowledge it is not that easy to use the built in php mailer... (You may need an api there!)
But wouldn't it be better to automatically sign them into your newsletter software? For example for Mailchimp or other systems like that there are quite good wordpress plugins!
You may also be able to include the forms of these PlugIns in your registration form, but without a closer look at this woocomerce registration i can't tell for sure!
I think this will do the trick, it will notify you every time a new user is created and also tell you if they subscribed or not.
function new_customer_registered_send_email_admin($user_login, $user_email) {
ob_start();
do_action('woocommerce_email_header', 'New customer registered');
$email_header = ob_get_clean();
ob_start();
do_action('woocommerce_email_footer');
$email_footer = ob_get_clean();
$user = get_user_by( 'email', $user_email );
$subscribed = get_user_meta( $user->ID, 'billing_inter_offers', true );
woocommerce_mail(
get_bloginfo('admin_email'),
get_bloginfo('name').' - New customer registered',
$email_header.'<p>The user '.esc_html( $user_login ).' created an account ' . ( $subscribed ? ' and subscribed to the newsletter.' : '.' ) . '<br>Email:'.esc_html( $user_email ).'</p>'.$email_footer
);
}
add_action('new_customer_registered', 'new_customer_registered_send_email_admin', 10, 2);
I ended up using the plugin amr users to generate a userlist of all users who had a certain metadata tag set to a certain value (in my case, if they want to recieve a newsletter - the previous developers never bothered to make the data actually readable without extra effort). It is a little clunky to use and not what I originally intended, but it got the job done.
I have a login form on my page. I found an option in the backend so that users can reset their password.
I tried it and it works, I received an E-Mail with a link to a page where I can change the password.
However, I try to change the content of the E-Mail because I don't like it.
I found this:
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTCONF']['felogin']['forgotPasswordMail']
Hook to change the contents of the forgot password mail
https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/extensions/felogin/Hooks/Index.html
I found this "Tutorial" which shows how to use hooks, but it is missing some important information. Where exactly do I have to do the manipulation? In which file? How exactly do I replace the content?
You can "simple" change the lang parameters for felogin to change the email content.
plugin.tx_felogin_pi1._LOCAL_LANG {
default {
ll_forgot_email_password (
... Your Text here for emails with password ...
)
ll_forgot_email_nopassword (
... Your Text here for emails where password can not found ...
)
ll_forgot_validate_reset_password(
... Here Text for emails with password reset link ...
)
}
}
You can see the default Text with placeholders here.
There first line of the translation is used as the subject of the email.
I am trying to add google identity toolkit in php. Signin option is working correctly but when i am clicking on problem in sign in link it is showing capthca after submitting captcha it is not navigating to any url.
email.php
<?php
include "identity-toolkit-php-client-master/src/GitkitClient.php";
$gitkitClient=new Gitkit_Client();
$oob_response = $gitkitClient->getOobResults($_POST);
$oob_link = $oob_response['oobLink'];
echo json_encode($oob_response);
?>
email.php is the oobactionurl file. when i am using this code I am getting this error .image
You need to create a php file to retrieve and send the reset link to the user. Make sure the oobActionUrl widget option points to this file. Within the file, you'll get the generated link and additional information by calling $gitkitClient->getOobResults($_POST). It should also work if you exclude $_POST, as the function will check the post contents if no arguments are passed. Then, you can get the link itself like this:
$oob_response = $gitkitClient->getOobResults($_POST);
$oob_link = $oob_response['oobLink'];
From there, you can use your email function of choice to send it to the user. The returned array should contain the following.
'email' => email of the user,
'oldEmail' => old email (for ChangeEmail only),
'newEmail' => new email (for ChangeEmail only),
'oobLink' => url for user click to finish the operation,
'action' => 'RESET_PASSWORD', or 'CHANGE_EMAIL',
'response_body' => http response to be sent back to Gitkit widget
Let me know if you have any further questions.
I can add and remove fields in the user profile section with:
function add_remove_contactmethods($contactmethods ) {
// Remove AIM
unset($contactmethods['aim']);
//add Phone
$contactmethods['phone'] = 'Phone';
return $contactmethods;
}
add_filter( 'user_contactmethods', 'add_remove_contactmethods' );
When I view this screen in the backend, the "Phone" field comes last, after some other fields like "Email" and "Website". I guess this is because my added field was added after the default Wordpress fields. How do I sort this, for instance alphabetically, so that my "Phone" field comes in alphabetical order instead of after the default fields? How do I sort the output of $contactmethods without messing it up?
try using ksort
function add_remove_contactmethods($contactmethods ) {
// Remove AIM
unset($contactmethods['aim']);
//add Phone
$contactmethods['phone'] = 'Phone';
ksort($contactmethods);
return $contactmethods;
}
add_filter( 'user_contactmethods', 'add_remove_contactmethods' );

UPDATE: So I guess the answer to my original question, is to explain why and how "Website" and "Email" are stored, and how the output is controlled in the backend when you view a profile. Maybe it's an ordered action? I guess "Website" and "Email" are just user meta, but how is the output order controlled. I accept that I might have to write a custom script to sort the output, I just don't know where to begin.
Your right about that, all the new contact fields were added into user_meta table. user_email and user_url are in the users table. The problem you are going to have doing this, is that a filter does not exist to modify the information. You can check the main filters here:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference
and also you can look at core itself. All the admin templates are in wp-admin so you can look at the variable you need to modify in user-edit.php ($profileuser). Im in no way recommending this, but you could modify the template there, it will be overwritten on the next update of course so thats a drawback to it.
There may be a hook somewhere in admin in the load template process, if you could find one, you could relocate the template location to a theme file and recreate it with the changes you want. But all this seems like a lot of work to include just 2 fields to reorder?
Another approach is to use a higher priority the other when adding the fields. For example, Yoast adding 3 contact methods, and if you want your 'phone' appear before those, set the filter to:
add_filter('user_contactmethods', 'my_contactmethods', -5, 1);
Email and Website cant be re-ordered unless deep PHP coding or javascript re-order or advanced CSS.
if you know the key(s) (check the name fields in the source code), you can add other plugin fields by yourself, and choose exact appearance. A field is only added once if they added twice (!) This is how we use:
function entex_author_contactmethods($contactmethods){
$contactmethods['mail'] = __('Public email', 'entex-theme');
$contactmethods['phone'] = __('Phone', 'entex-theme');
$contactmethods['googleplus'] = __('Google+', 'wordpress-seo');
$contactmethods['youtube'] = __('YouTube URL', 'wordpress-seo');
$contactmethods['facebook'] = __('Facebook profile URL', 'wordpress-seo');
$contactmethods['instagram'] = __('Instagram URL', 'wordpress-seo');
$contactmethods['twitter'] = __('Twitter username (without #)', 'wordpress-seo');
$contactmethods['linkedin'] = __('LinkedIn URL', 'wordpress-seo');
$contactmethods['myspace'] = __('MySpace URL', 'wordpress-seo');
$contactmethods['pinterest'] = __('Pinterest URL', 'wordpress-seo');
return $contactmethods;
}
add_filter('user_contactmethods', 'entex_author_contactmethods', -5, 1);
Happy contact-ing!
