How To Sent The Activation Email After Created User Programmatically

August 31, 2017PHP, WordPress

I wrote a plugin and create a user programmatically, however dont know how to create a activation email and send it to the new user

You need to build a activation link for new user and sent it to new user manually

        $code = sha1( $user_id . time() );
        $activation_link = add_query_arg( array( 'key' => $code, 'user' => $user_id ), get_permalink( /* YOUR ACTIVATION PAGE ID HERE */ ));
        add_user_meta( $user_id, 'has_to_be_activated', $code, true );
        wp_mail( $data['user_email'], 'ACTIVATION SUBJECT', 'CONGRATS BLA BLA BLA. HERE IS YOUR ACTIVATION LINK: ' . $activation_link );
