Thank you! I should really get myself to familiarize with hooks ?

Hi all, I wanted to generate a Customer Code that I can attach to the user registered from ryan's LoginRegister module's front-end sign up. I was aiming to have something like "ABCD-XY12345678" where X and Y are the user's initials and the number is the User object's id field (formatted to 8 digits). Unfortunately, I only got "ABCD-XY00000000". Is there a way to retrieve this newly created user's ID? Here's the code from LoginRegister.module (I have added new fields to the User template: fname, lname, and customerid): $user = $users->newUser(); $fname = ''; $lname = ''; $id = sprintf('%08d',$user->id); // populate values to new user foreach($values as $key => $value) { if(strpos($key, 'register_') !== 0) continue; $key = str_replace('register_', '', $key); if($key == 'roles') continue; // don't allow this, just in case if($key != 'name' && !$user->template->fieldgroup->hasField($key)) continue; if($key == 'fname') $fname = substr($value,0,1); if($key == 'lname') $lname = substr($value,0,1); $user->set($key, $value); } $customercode = "ABCD-$fname$lname$id"; $user->set('customerid',$customercode); I did try to edit once more after the $user->save() call down the code but I was greeted with a registration error. // create the user try { $this->createUserReady($user); $user->save(); $id = sprintf('%08d',$user->id); $customercode = "ABCD-$fname$lname$id"; $user->set('customerid',$customercode); $user->save(); } catch(\Exception $e) { throw new WireException('Unable to create user'); }
