This hook can be used to handle the data that is going to be
stored in the database for a user. Modules can do some last
minute change on the data or keep some external system in sync
with the Phorum user data.
In combination with the user_get hook, this hook
could also be used to store and retrieve some of the Phorum
user fields using some external system.
Call time:
Just before user data is stored in the database.
Hook input:
An array containing user data that will be sent to the database.
Hook output:
The same array as the one that was used for the hook call argument, possibly with some updated fields in it.
Example code:
function phorum_mod_foo_user_save($user) { // Add "[A]" in front of admin user real_name fields. $A = $user["admin"] ? "[A]" : ""; $real_name = preg_replace('/^\[A\]/', $A, $user["real_name"]); $user['real_name'] = $real_name; // Some fictional external system to keep in sync. include("../coolsys.php"); coolsys_save($user); return $user; }
