Automatically assigns BuddyPress profile types and WordPress roles based on email domain.

Description
-----------

[](#description)

This plugin automatically assigns BuddyPress profile types (e.g., Customer, Partner, Teacher, Student, etc.) and corresponding WordPress roles to users based on their email domain. It's particularly useful for:

Particularly useful for assigning profile types that aren't available for new users to pick from during registration.

The plugin integrates with BuddyPress/BuddyBoss's member type system and WordPress's role management to provide a seamless user onboarding experience.

Features
--------

[](#features)

- Automatic profile type assignment based on email domain.
- Configurable domain-to-profile-type mapping (code - no UI yet).
- Maintains role assignment based on BuddyPress member type configuration.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

1. Upload the `buddypress-profile-type-assigner` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
3. Configure the domain-to-profile-type mapping in the plugin settings.

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

The plugin uses a simple array-based configuration for mapping email domains to profile types. Define the following in a mu-plugin, theme functions file, or custom plugin:

```
define(
    'BUDDYPRESS_PROFILE_TYPE_DOMAIN_MAPPING',
    array(
        '@example.com'  => 'profile-type-1',
        '@example.org'  => 'profile-type-2',
        '@example.net'  => 'profile-type-3',
        '@example.info' => 'profile-type-4',
    )
);
```

Multiple domains can be assigned to the same profile type.

You can find the profile type slug at the bottom of editing the profile type, but it's the lowercase, hyphenated version of the profile type name. e.g. *Junior Developer* would have a slug of `junior-developer`.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- WordPress 6.6 or higher
- BuddyPress or BuddyBoss Platform
- Member types configured in BuddyPress/BuddyBoss
- WordPress roles configured for member types

Changelog
---------

License
