Customize the registration fields, success/failure messages and element values through Settings -> TWG Members settings panel #### Usage * Create a page for registration form and use **[twg-register-form]** shortcode on it, or if you have a custom template for that page – use PHP code to get the registration form * Create a page for login form and use **[twg-login-form]** shortcode on it, or if you have a custom template for that page – use PHP code to get the login form * Use **[twg-login-errors]** on the login page in place where you want login errors to be displayed, or code – for custom template * You can use **twg_logged_in()** PHP function to check whether there is a currently logged-in user (the function returns boolean _true_ or _false_) * Use **[twg-get-username]** shortcode or **twg_get_username()** function to get username of currently logged-in user (returns ‘Guest’ if user is not logged in) * Place on the page of user own profile the shortcode **[twg-my-profile]** or a function **twg_my_profile()** (user can edit his profile from the page where you place this code) * **[twg-profile-page]** shortcode or **twg_profile_page()** PHP function to be placed on users public profile page (user profile can be seen calling url like this [assuming that your page name/slug is ‘users’ http://my-wordpress-site.com/ users/?uid=15 – where uid=15 is ID of the user whose profile is to be displayed) * To log out the user you either redirect user to login page’s /?logout location( like this: http://www.my-wordpress-site.com/my_login_page/?logout) or add a new page for logging out and put there **[twg-logout]** short code or . * To display someones public profile by his user ID, you either need to proceed by the link from the user list or if you want to preview the public profile of the current user, you should get user ID by using [twg-my-id] short code or twg_my_id() PHP function and append it to the public profile page link like this: preview my profile or like this: ”>preview my profile * To get list of all members you can just call short code like this **[twg-member- list profile_page=”my_public_profiles_page”]** or a function like this twg_member_list(‘ profile_page=my_public_profiles_page’) from PHP. If you don’t use profile_page parameter (both in short tag and in PHP function) it will take “_profiles_” as a default value. This option points to your profile page (it must be the slug of the page where you have used _[twg-profile-page]_ or _twg\_profile\_page()_ function). _profile\_page_ is an optional parameter, so if not passed no profile links will be displayed for individual users. ## FAQ In case of any questions/misunderstandings write an email to plugin development chief 😉 [MrBeatMasta](https://lin.wordpress.org/plugins/twg-members/mrbeatmasta@gmail.com?output_format=md) ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “TheWebGears Members Plugin” is open source software.
