for some reason pmpro_set_current_user() not being called by set_current_user action

[shimondoodkin]

the function wp_set_current_user is executed before this plugin has been loaded. so it has no chance to add the hook

[shimondoodkin]

solved it this way

function pmpro_init()
{
     global $current_user;
     $id = intval($current_user->ID);
     if($id)
     {
      if(!isset($current_user->membership_level))   
      pmpro_set_current_user();
     }
 ...

Shimon, do you have more info on when this doesn't run? It's running for me. Perhaps another plugin is doing a remove_action("set_current_user") or something like that?

my wordpress i latest and bbpress is the latest.

the issue noticed when i set in a pmpro level that some category is required and added content even the authenticated user coulod not see the content and got level required message

From below the only other plugin that I have that has anything related to is bbpress

shared:/home/public_html/site# grep set_current_user ./* -R

if you like to debug it i can give you the code of the website

the wordpress is latest and the bbpress-wordpress-plugin is also latest

Hi shimondoodkin, is it solved?

[shimondoodkin]

Sorry It was too long ago. I don't remember what is going in that website.

[strangerstudios]

Not yet, but I like the solution offered earlier. We've actually been running into issues from this and offering other fixes (like checking for ->membership_level specifically when we want to use it). We'll have something like this in the next update.

Going to experiment with just adding

add_action('init', 'pmpro_set_current_user');

Thank you for the updated information :+1:
