Hello,

I have tried searching for this, but I am having no luck. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

So I am currently creating a new user by:

$new_id = bb_new_user( $user_name, $user_email, ”, 0);

I have verified that the user is properly being created and ‘$new_id’ contains the right user ID.

However, when I attempt to retrieve the user by:

$user = $wp_users_object->get_user($new_id);

Nothing is returned and $user is set to 0.

I have tried several other methods of retrieving the user and am having the same effect. Including:

$user = $wp_users_object->get_user( $user_name, array( ‘by’ => ‘login’ ) );

$user = $wp_users_object->get_user( $user_email, array( ‘by’ => ’email’ ) );

Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.

I have tried to accomplish this about 60 different ways. As of now I am assuming this is something wrong with BBPress, unless someone can shed some light on what i’m doing wrong.

I will have to switch to using a different forum if this cannot be resolved.

Why wouldn’t this work?

$new_id = bb_new_user( $user_name, $user_email, ”, 0);

$user = bb_get_user($new_id);

I receive “user does not exist” when trying to login. However if I try again, I am able to login.

PS. Why does it say this thread was started by someone else (aion4217)?
