First name and last name doesn’t show after submitting my registration form

Hey @bnfw,

Anyway, a blessed new year to you, and thank you for your reply.

Could you please take a look at my code below which is added in the functions.php

This is what my code looks like and could you please clarify if all I need is to change the function of this script. Thank you. 🙂

add_action( ‘register_form’, ‘myplugin_register_form’ );
function myplugin_register_form() {

$first_name = ( ! empty( $_POST[‘first_name’] ) ) ? trim( $_POST[‘first_name’] ) : ”;
$last_name = ( ! empty( $_POST[‘last_name’] ) ) ? trim( $_POST[‘last_name’] ) : ”;

?>
<p>
<label for=”first_name”><?php _e( ‘First Name’, ‘mydomain’ ) ?><br />
<input type=”text” name=”first_name” id=”first_name” class=”input” value=”<?php echo esc_attr( wp_unslash( $first_name ) ); ?>” size=”25″ /></label>
</p>

<p>
<label for=”last_name”><?php _e( ‘Last Name’, ‘mydomain’ ) ?><br />
<input type=”text” name=”last_name” id=”last_name” class=”input” value=”<?php echo esc_attr( wp_unslash( $last_name ) ); ?>” size=”25″ /></label>
</p>

<?php
}

//2. Add validation. In this case, we make sure first_name is required.
add_filter( ‘registration_errors’, ‘myplugin_registration_errors’, 10, 3 );
function myplugin_registration_errors( $errors, $sanitized_user_login, $user_email ) {

if ( empty( $_POST[‘first_name’] ) || ! empty( $_POST[‘first_name’] ) && trim( $_POST[‘first_name’] ) == ” ) {
$errors->add( ‘first_name_error’, __( ‘ERROR: You must include a first name.’, ‘mydomain’ ) );
}
if ( empty( $_POST[‘last_name’] ) || ! empty( $_POST[‘last_name’] ) && trim( $_POST[‘first_name’] ) == ” ) {
$errors->add( ‘last_name_error’, __( ‘ERROR: You must include a first name.’, ‘mydomain’ ) );
}
return $errors;
}

//3. Finally, save our extra registration user meta.
add_action( ‘user_register’, ‘myplugin_user_register’ );
function myplugin_user_register( $user_id ) {
if ( ! empty( $_POST[‘first_name’] ) ) {
update_user_meta( $user_id, ‘first_name’, trim( $_POST[‘first_name’] ) );
update_user_meta( $user_id, ‘last_name’, trim( $_POST[‘last_name’] ) );
}
}

@voltronik Thanks for your help and I will try to see how will I be able to set and save the extra fields before it sends the notification to my email.
