function hook_user_presave
7.x user.api.php | hook_user_presave(&$edit, $account, $category) |
A user account is about to be created or updated.
This hook is primarily intended for modules that want to store properties in the serialized {users}.data column, which is automatically loaded whenever a user account object is loaded, modules may add to $edit['data'] in order to have their data serialized on save.
Parameters
$edit: The array of form values submitted by the user. Assign values to this array to save changes in the database.
$account: The user object on which the operation is performed. Values assigned in this object will not be saved in the database.
$category: The active category of user information being edited.
