Change joined date?
Hi, does anyone know if it is possible to change a member's join date? If we deploy FC for our members, we'd like the join date to be the date they joined the organization instead of the date they joined FluentCommunity. I'm aware this will likely need to be done via code, if possible at all, which is fine since we are planning on customizing the WordPress authentication system to pull data from our internal CRM system (we already do this on our current member site). Thanks!!
This is possible by directly editing the fcom xprofile database table (it's the create dat column). You could create a code snippet to edit this value if you're wanting something a bit more programmatic. It really depends on how many users you want to update, how important it is to use this date, and how much effort you want to put in hahah it's also important to know that FC uses human time diff (eg. "Joined 1yr ago") so at a certain point, the actual date isn't particularly useful as long as it's roughly aligned with what you're looking for.
Stuart McKelvie Thanks!
I think you could use my Content Manager plugin to do this on an individual basis. If you want it automatically to show a different date to the default then I'm not entirely sure how that would work.
