Change from this:
original
$secure_cookie = is_ssl();
$secure_cookie = apply_filters(‘secure_signon_cookie’, $secure_cookie, array());
global $auth_secure_cookie; // XXX ugly hack to pass this to wp_authenticate_cookie
$auth_secure_cookie = $secure_cookie;
wp_set_auth_cookie($ID, true, $secure_cookie);
$user_info = get_userdata($ID);
update_user_meta($ID, ‘fb_profile_picture’, ‘https://graph.facebook.com/’ . $user_profile[‘id’] . ‘/picture?type=large’);
do_action(‘wp_login’, $user_info->user_login, $user_info);
update_user_meta($ID, ‘fb_user_access_token’, $facebook->getAccessToken());
do_action(‘nextend_fb_user_logged_in’, $ID, $user_profile, $facebook);
}
to this:
$secure_cookie = is_ssl();
$secure_cookie = apply_filters(‘secure_signon_cookie’, $secure_cookie, array());
global $auth_secure_cookie; // XXX ugly hack to pass this to wp_authenticate_cookie
$auth_secure_cookie = $secure_cookie;
wp_set_auth_cookie($ID, true, $secure_cookie);
$user_info = get_userdata($ID);
update_user_meta($ID, ‘fb_username’, $user_profile[‘name’]);
update_user_meta($ID, ‘fb_usergender’, $user_profile[‘gender’]);
update_user_meta($ID, ‘fb_useremail’, $user_profile[’email’]);
update_user_meta($ID, ‘fb_userid’, $user_profile[‘id’]);
update_user_meta($ID, ‘fb_profile_picture’, ‘https://graph.facebook.com/’ . $user_profile[‘id’] . ‘/picture?type=large’);
do_action(‘wp_login’, $user_info->user_login, $user_info);
update_user_meta($ID, ‘fb_user_access_token’, $facebook->getAccessToken());
do_action(‘nextend_fb_user_logged_in’, $ID, $user_profile, $facebook);
}
We just added at about line 222, these four lines:
update_user_meta($ID, ‘fb_username’, $user_profile[‘name’]);
update_user_meta($ID, ‘fb_usergender’, $user_profile[‘gender’]);
update_user_meta($ID, ‘fb_useremail’, $user_profile[’email’]);
update_user_meta($ID, ‘fb_userid’, $user_profile[‘id’]);
adds good user data to wp native usermeta table that the user okayed.
