I’m working on a project where I need the ability to add “Phone”, “Building”, and “Room” as information a user could add in their profile. I also wanted to remove “AIM”, “Yahoo”, and “Jabber” — none of the users are going to need to fill in that info.
You can easily add this code into your functions.php. I was writing it for a WordPress MU site with multiple themes and needed to make sure it was enforced, so I stuck it in the mu-plugins directory, in a file named “extended-contact-info.php”.
This is the simple code block you need:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 |
function extended_contact_info($user_contactmethods) { //Use this if you want to append to the default //contact methods (AIM, Yahoo, Jabber) //$user_contactmethods += array( // 'building' => __('Building'), // 'room' => __('Room'), // 'phone' => __('Phone') //); //Use this if you want to ignore the default //contact methods (AIM, Yahoo, Jabber) $user_contactmethods = array( 'building' => __('Building'), 'room' => __('Room'), 'phone' => __('Phone') ); return $user_contactmethods; } add_filter('user_contactmethods', 'extended_contact_info'); |
