Custom signup redirection to external URL not working

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello,

    I am using User Registration plugin to register my users. I have created a widget to show a modal with Signup and Login form. I have one more API where the user gets created from this same form. So I have created custom code to handle Login and Signup. After successful Login or Signup, I want my users to redirect to a certain URL. For Login that is working fine, but it is not working for Signup. If anyone knows the issue, please help. Thank you in advance. Here I have added my code for Signup:

    <?php
    
    function custom_pre_user_registration($form_data)
    {
        // Extract necessary data from form submission
        $email = isset($form_data['user_email']->value) ? sanitize_email($form_data['user_email']->value) : '';
        $password = isset($form_data['user_pass']->value) ? sanitize_text_field($form_data['user_pass']->value) : '';
        $target_profession_id = isset($form_data['targetProfessionId']->value) ? sanitize_text_field($form_data['targetProfessionId']->value) : '';
    
        // Your API endpoint
        $api_url = SERVER_URL . '/api/v1/auth/signup';
    
        // Data to be sent to the API
        $data = array(
            'email' => $email,
            'password' => $password,
            'targetProfessionId' => $target_profession_id,
        );
    
        // Set up the request
        $args = array(
            'body' => json_encode($data),
            'headers' => array(
                'Content-Type' => 'application/json',
            ),
        );
    
        // Make the API call
        $response = wp_remote_post($api_url, $args);
    
        // Check for API errors
        if (is_wp_error($response)) {
            $error_message = $response->get_error_message();
            error_log("API Error: $error_message");
            wp_send_json_error(array('message' => $error_message));
        }
    
        $response_body = wp_remote_retrieve_body($response);
        $response_data = json_decode($response_body, true);
    
        // Log the full response body for debugging
        error_log("API Response: " . print_r($response_body, true));
    
        // Check the headers for the Set-Cookie header
        $headers = wp_remote_retrieve_headers($response);
        error_log("API Response Headers: " . print_r($headers, true));
    
        // Manually set the cookie received from the API response
        if (isset($headers['set-cookie'])) {
            $set_cookie_header = $headers['set-cookie'];
    
            if (is_array($set_cookie_header)) {
                foreach ($set_cookie_header as $cookie) {
                    header("Set-Cookie: $cookie", false);
                    error_log("Setting cookie: $cookie");
                }
            } else {
                header("Set-Cookie: $set_cookie_header", false);
                error_log("Setting cookie: $set_cookie_header");
            }
        }
    
        // Check the API response for success
        if (isset($response_data['success']) && $response_data['success'] === true) {
            // Get the UUID from the API response
            $userName = isset($response_data['data']['userName']) ? sanitize_text_field($response_data['data']['userName']) : '';
            $uuid = isset($response_data['data']['id']) ? sanitize_text_field($response_data['data']['id']) : '';
    
            // Create the WordPress user with the same UUID
            $user_id = wp_create_user($userName, $password, $email);
    
            // Check if the user was created successfully
            if (is_wp_error($user_id)) {
                $error_message = $user_id->get_error_message();
                error_log("WordPress User Creation Error: $error_message");

            }

            update_user_meta($user_id, 'uuid', $uuid);

            wp_set_current_user($user_id);
            wp_set_auth_cookie($user_id);
            do_action('wp_login', $userName, get_userdata($user_id));
    
            error_log("API Registration and WordPress User Creation Success");
    
            // Check if the request is an AJAX request
            if (wp_doing_ajax()) {
                wp_send_json_success(array('redirect_url' => APP_LANDING . '/' . $response_data['data']['id']));
            } else {
                wp_redirect(APP_LANDING . '/' . $response_data['data']['id']);
                exit;
            }
        } else {
            // Handle API registration failure
            $error_message = isset($response_data['message']) ? $response_data['message'] : __('Registration failed.', 'textdomain');
            error_log("API Registration Failure: $error_message");
            if (wp_doing_ajax()) {
                wp_send_json_error(array('message' => $error_message));
            } else {
                wp_die(__('API Error: ', 'textdomain') . $error_message);
            }

    It looks like you’ve got a solid setup for handling user registration via an API in WordPress, but the redirect after successful signup isn’t working as expected. Here are a few things you can check and modify to troubleshoot and potentially fix the issue:Steps to Troubleshoot the Redirect Issue

    1. Check AJAX Request Handling:
      • Ensure that your signup form is correctly configured to handle AJAX submissions. If the form is not set up for AJAX, the wp_doing_ajax() check may not return true, and the redirect will attempt to occur via wp_redirect, which might not be executed properly in an AJAX context.
    2. Verify APP_LANDING:
      • Make sure that APP_LANDING is correctly defined and points to a valid URL. If this constant is not set or is incorrect, the redirect URL could be invalid.
    3. Debugging Redirect Logic:
      • Add debugging logs before the wp_redirect call to confirm that the execution reaches that point and to see what URL it attempts to redirect to.

    Thank you for your response.

    I have added debug log before redirect and wp_doing_ajax() is true. So in the if statement, first one is logging there. And the APP_LANDING is correct as I am doing similar thing in login.php and that is working fine. Only difference with the login is, I am using add_filter in login and add_action in signup.
