How to use network_user_new_form action in WordPress

Let’s dive into the network_user_new_form action hook, which fires at the end of the new user form in the network admin. To use this hook effectively, you first need to register it with add_action. You can place this code in the functions.php of your active theme or better yet, in a custom WordPress Plugin to ensure nothing breaks during theme updates.

Here at WePlugins, we always suggest creating a custom WordPress Plugin when dealing with hooks for better maintainability. Below, you will find some live examples demonstrating how to implement this hook.

Example 1: Registering the Hook

To start using the network_user_new_form action, you need to define a function and register it with add_action.

    function weplugins_execute_on_network_user_new_form_event(){
        // Custom code to execute when this action occurs.
    }
    // Add the action
    add_action( "network_user_new_form", "weplugins_execute_on_network_user_new_form_event");
    

Example 2: Removing the Hook

If you need to remove a registered hook, remove_action is your friend. Ensure you provide the same callback function name, priority, and number of arguments.

    remove_action( "network_user_new_form", "weplugins_execute_on_network_user_new_form_event");
    

Example 3: Using the Hook in a Custom Plugin

Creating a custom WordPress Plugin ensures that your customizations remain intact. Here’s how you can integrate the hook into your plugin.

    function weplugins_custom_plugin_setup() {
        function weplugins_execute_on_network_user_new_form_event(){
            // Code specific to your plugin's needs.
        }
        add_action( "network_user_new_form", "weplugins_execute_on_network_user_new_form_event");
    }
    add_action('init', 'weplugins_custom_plugin_setup');
