Wordpress : Change the Contact Info Form

/ Published in: PHP

In the User settings, there is a web form called Contact Info. It has input fields for the userâ€™s AIM account, Yahoo IM account, and so on.

But how about Twitter? What about Facebook? Out of the box, the Contact Info panel doesnâ€™t have these input fields.

If you have multiple users on your WordPress blog, you might want to add new fields and remove old ones.

Expand | Embed | Plain Text

Copy this code and paste it in your HTML

function new_contactmethods( $contactmethods ) {
  $contactmethods['twitter'] = 'Twitter'; // Add Twitter
  $contactmethods['facebook'] = 'Facebook'; // Add Facebook
  unset($contactmethods['yim']); // Remove Yahoo IM
  unset($contactmethods['aim']); // Remove AIM
  unset($contactmethods['jabber']); // Remove Jabber
 
return $contactmethods;
}
 
add_filter('user_contactmethods','new_contactmethods',10,1);ne
