I am using business logic plugin to tap into save user event and create some profile field values.

public function init(){
    parent::init();

    craft()->on('users.saveUser', function(Event $event) {

    }
}

On save user returns a success object. I want to return more user profile data to the page on success.

In the save User function I have tried:

 if (craft()->request->isAjaxRequest())
 {
     $return = array(
         'success' => true,
         'errorCode' => 1,
         'uid' => $user->id,
         'urn' => $URN
     );

     return json_encode($return);
 }

but I still get the usual response of success and user id. How do i get a thank you 'page' into the process so I can feedback to the user?

  • That event you're using allows you do run code when a user is saved/updated, whether that be in the front-end or in the Control Panel. Are you updating the user on the front-end? – Brad Apr 25 '17 at 20:09
  • Its incomplete. Its front end registration and code contains: if (craft()->request->isSiteRequest()) {} and if ($event->params['isNewUser']) { – joomkit Apr 25 '17 at 20:17
  • if you're doing front-end, just submit to the saveUser endpoint in the craftcms docs for registration w/ a redirect hidden input set, once it redirects to the place you set it to, you can display the user's info there, using the currentUser object, for example: currentUser.email, etc. – Brad Apr 26 '17 at 14:07
  • Its an ajax user registration..... – joomkit Apr 26 '17 at 15:08
  • One option is to hack the UsersController.php file, around line 1060 to include additional data on the return. – Brad Apr 26 '17 at 15:49

Instead of listening to the onSaveUser event, I'd update my user save form on the front-end to point to a controller's action in my plugin.

You can run similar logic to what Craft's UsersController->actionSaveUser() is doing and return any custom JSON encoded data you want back to your template.
