Running into some more UserCake problems. Right now I am trying to create a function to update first name (will use for lots of fields), however when I call the function the script stops. For some reason, I believe it doesn't seem to know where the function is? or that it even exists? Because whenever I submit the form, the page stops on the line that I call $loggedInUser->updateFirstName($first_name);
Here's what I'm working with:
funcs.php
if ($first_name != $loggedInUser->first_name) {
if(trim($first_name) == "") {
$errors[] = lang("ACCOUNT_SPECIFY_FNAME");
}
//End data validation
if(count($errors) == 0) {
$loggedInUser->updateFirstName($first_name);
$successes[] = lang("ACCOUNT_FNAME_UPDATED");
}
}
user_settings.php
//Change a user's first name
function updateFirstName($id, $first_name)
{
global $mysqli,$db_table_prefix;
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare("UPDATE ".$db_table_prefix."users
SET
first_name = ?
WHERE
id = ?");
$stmt->bind_param("si", $first_name, $id);
$result = $stmt->execute();
$stmt->close();
return $result;
}
What I'm confused about is that the updateEmail() function works perfectly, it's exactly the same except for the actual field name being 'email'.
