    Issue carried forward from this WordPress forum –

    Thank you, Stiofan!

    This is what I understood and tried. (Does not work!) Can someone advise on the code please?

    

    add_filter('uwp_templates_register','_my_uwp_template_change');
add_filter('uwp_templates_login','_my_uwp_template_change');
add_filter('uwp_templates_account','_my_uwp_template_change');
add_filter('uwp_templates_change','_my_uwp_template_change');
add_filter('uwp_templates_forgot','_my_uwp_template_change');
add_filter('uwp_templates_profile','_my_uwp_template_change');
function _my_uwp_template_change($template){
    if (strpos($template, 'register') !== false) {
        $template = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/newpath/userswp/register.php';
    }elseif(strpos($template, 'login') !== false){
        $template = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/newpath/userswp/login.php';
    }elseif(strpos($template, 'account') !== false){
        $template = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/newpath/account.php';
    }elseif(strpos($template, 'change') !== false){
        $template = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/newpath/userswp/change.php';
    }elseif(strpos($template, 'forgot') !== false){
        $template = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/newpath/userswp/forgot.php';
    }elseif(strpos($template, 'profile') !== false){
        $template = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/newpath/userswp/profile.php';
    }
    return $template;
}
    

    Kind regards

    Actually you were pretty close, just change
    
uwp_templates_
    
to (no s)
    
uwp_template_
    

    Stiofan 🙂

    Thank you Stiofan 🙂
    

    I guess this time, it works till the point of picking up the new path. But after that, breaks down with something like this (message shown on browser when accessing login.php):
    

    Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function do_action() in /home/directory/themes/child/newpath/userswp/login.php:1 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in /home/directory/themes/child/newpath/userswp/login.php on line 1
    

    Not sure what went wrong. Do I need to change anything in the form itself?
    

    Kind regards

    Hi Abhijeet,
    

    That is strange, its working for me, and do_action should always be defined unless you are calling the file direct.
    

    If you can provide wp-admin details in a private reply i will take a look, also let me know where your code is located.
    

    Thanks,
    

    Stiofan

    Hi Stiofan,
    

    Thank you. It is a staging area and I cannot share the admin details. I really appreciate the inputs and advise here. About your query, I am adding this code to a site-specific plugin.
    

    I use a do_action () at the end of the code pasted above. I am not sure whether I have the correct hooks here (tried a few 🙂 ) after looking in the forms.
    

    do_action('uwp_template_', $template);
    

    Kind regards
    
Abhijeet

    Yes you do not need a do_action in the snippet. Below is the exact code i tested with on my test site:
    

    

    add_filter('uwp_template_register','_my_uwp_template_change');
add_filter('uwp_template_login','_my_uwp_template_change');
add_filter('uwp_template_account','_my_uwp_template_change');
add_filter('uwp_template_change','_my_uwp_template_change');
add_filter('uwp_template_forgot','_my_uwp_template_change');
add_filter('uwp_template_profile','_my_uwp_template_change');
function _my_uwp_template_change($template){
    if (strpos($template, 'register') !== false) {
        $template = get_stylesheet_directory() . '/newpath/userswp/register.php';
    }elseif(strpos($template, 'login') !== false){
        $template = get_stylesheet_directory() . '/newpath/userswp/login.php';
    }elseif(strpos($template, 'account') !== false){
        $template = get_stylesheet_directory() . '/newpath/account.php';
    }elseif(strpos($template, 'change') !== false){
        $template = get_stylesheet_directory() . '/newpath/userswp/change.php';
    }elseif(strpos($template, 'forgot') !== false){
        $template = get_stylesheet_directory() . '/newpath/userswp/forgot.php';
    }elseif(strpos($template, 'profile') !== false){
        $template = get_stylesheet_directory() . '/newpath/userswp/profile.php';
    }
    return $template;
}

    Thank you Stiofan! 
    

    I am building a site-plugin. I have two snippets that work and this is the third one. I do not know what went wrong the previous attempts when I tried coding it in [with and without the do_action()]. But this time, it worked! I do not know how to explain. Perhaps cache? Though I usually test incognito.
    

    As I wrote in my 5-star review of UsersWP, I can not thank you enough! 🙂
    

    Cheers
    
Abhijeet

I’m glad you got it working and thank you very much for your review again 🙂
