wp_set_current_user( $id, $name = '' ) X-Ref |
Changes the current user by ID or name. Set $id to null and specify a name if you do not know a user's ID. Some WordPress functionality is based on the current user and not based on the signed in user. Therefore, it opens the ability to edit and perform actions on users who aren't signed in. return: WP_User Current user User object. param: int|null $id User ID. param: string $name User's username. since: 2.0.3 |
wp_get_current_user() X-Ref |
Retrieve the current user object. Will set the current user, if the current user is not set. The current user will be set to the logged-in person. If no user is logged-in, then it will set the current user to 0, which is invalid and won't have any permissions. return: WP_User Current WP_User instance. since: 2.0.3 |
get_userdata( $user_id ) X-Ref |
Retrieve user info by user ID. return: WP_User|false WP_User object on success, false on failure. param: int $user_id User ID since: 0.71 |
get_user_by( $field, $value ) X-Ref |
Retrieve user info by a given field return: WP_User|false WP_User object on success, false on failure. param: string $field The field to retrieve the user with. id | ID | slug | email | login. param: int|string $value A value for $field. A user ID, slug, email address, or login name. since: 2.8.0 since: 4.4.0 Added 'ID' as an alias of 'id' for the `$field` parameter. since: 5.8.0 Returns the global `$current_user` if it's the user being fetched. |
cache_users( $user_ids ) X-Ref |
Retrieve info for user lists to prevent multiple queries by get_userdata() param: int[] $user_ids User ID numbers list since: 3.0.0 |
wp_mail( $to, $subject, $message, $headers = '', $attachments = array() X-Ref |
Sends an email, similar to PHP's mail function. A true return value does not automatically mean that the user received the email successfully. It just only means that the method used was able to process the request without any errors. The default content type is `text/plain` which does not allow using HTML. However, you can set the content type of the email by using the {@see 'wp_mail_content_type'} filter. The default charset is based on the charset used on the blog. The charset can be set using the {@see 'wp_mail_charset'} filter. return: bool Whether the email was sent successfully. param: string|string[] $to Array or comma-separated list of email addresses to send message. param: string $subject Email subject. param: string $message Message contents. param: string|string[] $headers Optional. Additional headers. param: string|string[] $attachments Optional. Paths to files to attach. since: 1.2.1 since: 5.5.0 is_email() is used for email validation, |

wp_clear_auth_cookie() X-Ref |
Removes all of the cookies associated with authentication. since: 2.5.0 |
is_user_logged_in() X-Ref |
Determines whether the current visitor is a logged in user. For more information on this and similar theme functions, check out the {@link https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/conditional-tags/ Conditional Tags} article in the Theme Developer Handbook. return: bool True if user is logged in, false if not logged in. since: 2.0.0 |
auth_redirect() X-Ref |
Checks if a user is logged in, if not it redirects them to the login page. When this code is called from a page, it checks to see if the user viewing the page is logged in. If the user is not logged in, they are redirected to the login page. The user is redirected in such a way that, upon logging in, they will be sent directly to the page they were originally trying to access. since: 1.5.0 |
check_admin_referer( $action = -1, $query_arg = '_wpnonce' ) X-Ref |
Ensures intent by verifying that a user was referred from another admin page with the correct security nonce. This function ensures the user intends to perform a given action, which helps protect against clickjacking style attacks. It verifies intent, not authorisation, therefore it does not verify the user's capabilities. This should be performed with `current_user_can()` or similar. If the nonce value is invalid, the function will exit with an "Are You Sure?" style message. return: int|false 1 if the nonce is valid and generated between 0-12 hours ago, param: int|string $action The nonce action. param: string $query_arg Optional. Key to check for nonce in `$_REQUEST`. Default '_wpnonce'. since: 1.2.0 since: 2.5.0 The `$query_arg` parameter was added. |
check_ajax_referer( $action = -1, $query_arg = false, $die = true ) X-Ref |
Verifies the Ajax request to prevent processing requests external of the blog. return: int|false 1 if the nonce is valid and generated between 0-12 hours ago, param: int|string $action Action nonce. param: false|string $query_arg Optional. Key to check for the nonce in `$_REQUEST` (since 2.5). If false, param: bool $die Optional. Whether to die early when the nonce cannot be verified. since: 2.0.3 |
wp_redirect( $location, $status = 302, $x_redirect_by = 'WordPress' ) X-Ref |
Redirects to another page. Note: wp_redirect() does not exit automatically, and should almost always be followed by a call to `exit;`: wp_redirect( $url ); exit; Exiting can also be selectively manipulated by using wp_redirect() as a conditional in conjunction with the {@see 'wp_redirect'} and {@see 'wp_redirect_location'} filters: if ( wp_redirect( $url ) ) { exit; } return: bool False if the redirect was cancelled, true otherwise. param: string $location The path or URL to redirect to. param: int $status Optional. HTTP response status code to use. Default '302' (Moved Temporarily). param: string $x_redirect_by Optional. The application doing the redirect. Default 'WordPress'. since: 1.5.1 since: 5.1.0 The `$x_redirect_by` parameter was added. since: 5.4.0 On invalid status codes, wp_die() is called. |
wp_sanitize_redirect( $location ) X-Ref |
Sanitizes a URL for use in a redirect. return: string Redirect-sanitized URL. param: string $location The path to redirect to. since: 2.3.0 |
_wp_sanitize_utf8_in_redirect( $matches ) X-Ref |
URL encode UTF-8 characters in a URL. return: string URL-encoded version of the first RegEx match. param: array $matches RegEx matches against the redirect location. since: 4.2.0 |
wp_safe_redirect( $location, $status = 302, $x_redirect_by = 'WordPress' ) X-Ref |
Performs a safe (local) redirect, using wp_redirect(). Checks whether the $location is using an allowed host, if it has an absolute path. A plugin can therefore set or remove allowed host(s) to or from the list. If the host is not allowed, then the redirect defaults to wp-admin on the siteurl instead. This prevents malicious redirects which redirect to another host, but only used in a few places. Note: wp_safe_redirect() does not exit automatically, and should almost always be followed by a call to `exit;`: wp_safe_redirect( $url ); exit; Exiting can also be selectively manipulated by using wp_safe_redirect() as a conditional in conjunction with the {@see 'wp_redirect'} and {@see 'wp_redirect_location'} filters: if ( wp_safe_redirect( $url ) ) { exit; } return: bool False if the redirect was cancelled, true otherwise. param: string $location The path or URL to redirect to. param: int $status Optional. HTTP response status code to use. Default '302' (Moved Temporarily). param: string $x_redirect_by Optional. The application doing the redirect. Default 'WordPress'. since: 2.3.0 since: 5.1.0 The return value from wp_redirect() is now passed on, and the `$x_redirect_by` parameter was added. |
wp_validate_redirect( $location, $default = '' ) X-Ref |
Validates a URL for use in a redirect. Checks whether the $location is using an allowed host, if it has an absolute path. A plugin can therefore set or remove allowed host(s) to or from the list. If the host is not allowed, then the redirect is to $default supplied return: string redirect-sanitized URL param: string $location The redirect to validate param: string $default The value to return if $location is not allowed since: 2.8.1 |

wp_verify_nonce( $nonce, $action = -1 ) X-Ref |
Verifies that a correct security nonce was used with time limit. A nonce is valid for 24 hours (by default). return: int|false 1 if the nonce is valid and generated between 0-12 hours ago, param: string $nonce Nonce value that was used for verification, usually via a form field. param: string|int $action Should give context to what is taking place and be the same when nonce was created. since: 2.0.3 |

wp_salt( $scheme = 'auth' ) X-Ref |
Returns a salt to add to hashes. Salts are created using secret keys. Secret keys are located in two places: in the database and in the wp-config.php file. The secret key in the database is randomly generated and will be appended to the secret keys in wp-config.php. The secret keys in wp-config.php should be updated to strong, random keys to maximize security. Below is an example of how the secret key constants are defined. Do not paste this example directly into wp-config.php. Instead, have a {@link https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt/ secret key created} just for you. define('AUTH_KEY', ' Xakm<o xQy rw4EMsLKM-?!T+,PFF})H4lzcW57AF0U@N@< >M%G4Yt>f`z]MON'); define('SECURE_AUTH_KEY', 'LzJ}op]mr|6+![P}Ak:uNdJCJZd>(Hx.-Mh#Tz)pCIU#uGEnfFz|f ;;eU%/U^O~'); define('LOGGED_IN_KEY', '|i|Ux`9<p-h$aFf(qnT:sDO:D1P^wZ$$/Ra@miTJi9G;ddp_<q}6H1)o|a +&JCM'); define('NONCE_KEY', '%:R{[P|,s.KuMltH5}cI;/k<Gx~j!f0I)m_sIyu+&NJZ)-iO>z7X>QYR0Z_XnZ@|'); define('AUTH_SALT', 'eZyT)-Naw]F8CwA*VaW#q*|.)g@o}||wf~@C-YSt}(dh_r6EbI#A,y|nU2{B#JBW'); define('SECURE_AUTH_SALT', '!=oLUTXh,QW=H `}`L|9/^4-3 STz},T(w}W<I`.JjPi)<Bmf1v,HpGe}T1:Xt7n'); define('LOGGED_IN_SALT', '+XSqHc;@Q*K_b|Z?NC[3H!!EONbh.n<+=uKR:>*c(u`g~EJBf#8u#R{mUEZrozmm'); define('NONCE_SALT', 'h`GXHhD>SLWVfg1(1(N{;.V!MoE(SfbA_ksP@&`+AycHcAV$+?@3q+rxV{%^VyKT'); Salting passwords helps against tools which has stored hashed values of common dictionary strings. The added values makes it harder to crack. return: string Salt value param: string $scheme Authentication scheme (auth, secure_auth, logged_in, nonce) since: 2.5.0 |
wp_hash( $data, $scheme = 'auth' ) X-Ref |
Get hash of given string. return: string Hash of $data param: string $data Plain text to hash param: string $scheme Authentication scheme (auth, secure_auth, logged_in, nonce) since: 2.0.3 |
wp_hash_password( $password ) X-Ref |
Create a hash (encrypt) of a plain text password. For integration with other applications, this function can be overwritten to instead use the other package password checking algorithm. return: string The hash string of the password param: string $password Plain text user password to hash since: 2.5.0 |
wp_check_password( $password, $hash, $user_id = '' ) X-Ref |
Checks the plaintext password against the encrypted Password. Maintains compatibility between old version and the new cookie authentication protocol using PHPass library. The $hash parameter is the encrypted password and the function compares the plain text password when encrypted similarly against the already encrypted password to see if they match. For integration with other applications, this function can be overwritten to instead use the other package password checking algorithm. return: bool False, if the $password does not match the hashed password param: string $password Plaintext user's password param: string $hash Hash of the user's password to check against. param: string|int $user_id Optional. User ID. since: 2.5.0 |
wp_generate_password( $length = 12, $special_chars = true, $extra_special_chars = false ) X-Ref |
Generates a random password drawn from the defined set of characters. Uses wp_rand() is used to create passwords with far less predictability than similar native PHP functions like `rand()` or `mt_rand()`. return: string The random password. param: int $length Optional. The length of password to generate. Default 12. param: bool $special_chars Optional. Whether to include standard special characters. param: bool $extra_special_chars Optional. Whether to include other special characters. since: 2.5.0 |

wp_set_password( $password, $user_id ) X-Ref |
Updates the user's password with a new encrypted one. For integration with other applications, this function can be overwritten to instead use the other package password checking algorithm. Please note: This function should be used sparingly and is really only meant for single-time application. Leveraging this improperly in a plugin or theme could result in an endless loop of password resets if precautions are not taken to ensure it does not execute on every page load. param: string $password The plaintext new user password param: int $user_id User ID since: 2.5.0 |
get_avatar( $id_or_email, $size = 96, $default = '', $alt = '', $args = null ) X-Ref |
