Description

This hook is called after a call to update_metadata succeeds.

Usage

<?php add_action( "updated_{$meta_type}_meta", $function_name', 10, 4 ); ?>

where $function_name is the name of the function to be called and $meta_type is the type of metadata that was updated.

Parameters

$meta_id

(int) (required) ID of the row being updated

Default: None

$object_id

(int) (required) ID of the object the metadata applies to

Default: None

$meta_key

(string) (required) Metadata key

Default: None

$_meta_value

(mixed) (required) Metadata value. Must be serializable if non-scalar.

Default: None

Note that unlike updated_postmeta, the $_meta_value param is not serialized.

Examples

For example, to respond to updates to user metadata:

<?php
add_action( 'updated_user_meta', 'my_update_user_meta', 10, 4 );

function my_update_user_meta($meta_id, $object_id, $meta_key, $_meta_value) {
	//do stuff
}
?>
