WP/WC missing argument in WooCommerce Function

Question

I have Wordpress with WooCommerce installed and I am trying to use this code to login an admin user:

if ( !is_user_logged_in() ) {
    $user = get_userdatabylogin( $username ); // get_user_by('login', $user_login);
    $id = $user->ID;

    wp_set_current_user( $id, $user->user_login );
    wp_set_auth_cookie( $id );
    do_action( 'wp_login', $user->user_login );
}

But it is returning this error message:

Warning: Missing argument 2 for wc_maybe_store_user_agent() in plugins/woocommerce/includes/wc-core-functions.php on line 1516

I have tried looking around online but no one seems to have had this issue.

Is the issue resolved or you still facing the problem? If it is resolved you should post an answer here. — Parantap Parashar, Jun 08 '17 at 06:33
do not use get_userdatabylogin function as it deprecated by WP. Use get_user_by() instead. — Mukesh Panchal, Jun 08 '17 at 09:21

if (!is_user_logged_in()) {

    //determine WordPress user account to impersonate
    $user_login = 'guest';

    //get user ID
    $user = get_userdatabylogin($user_login); // below WP 3.3.0

    //$user =  get_user_by('login', $user_login); above or equals WP 3.3.0

    $user_id = $user->ID;

    //login
    wp_set_current_user($user_id, $user_login);
    wp_set_auth_cookie($user_id);
    do_action('wp_login', $user_login);
}

There is a hook in WooCommerce like this.

add_action( 'wp_login', 'wc_maybe_store_user_agent', 10, 2 );

The "wc_maybe_store_user_agent" expects 2 parameter. If the user ID is not set, it will show the error you mentioned. Test my snippet above

Function is at line 1516 in plugins/woocommerce/includes/wc-core-functions.php

function wc_maybe_store_user_agent( $user_login, $user ) {
    if ( 'yes' === get_option( 'woocommerce_allow_tracking', 'no' ) && user_can( $user, 'manage_woocommerce' ) ) {
        $admin_user_agents   = array_filter( (array) get_option( 'woocommerce_tracker_ua', array() ) );
        $admin_user_agents[] = wc_get_user_agent();
        update_option( 'woocommerce_tracker_ua', array_unique( $admin_user_agents ) );
    }
}
add_action( 'wp_login', 'wc_maybe_store_user_agent', 10, 2 );

Yeah thanks you. You 're totally right, 2 arguments - one missing — Vincent Guesné, Jan 24 '19 at 21:52

You missed one parameter. Try this.

do_action( 'wp_login', $user->user_login, $user );

it doesn't seem to be logging in – charlie May 12 '17 at 09:39
do you have any ideas what could be stopping it from logging in? – charlie May 12 '17 at 12:00
@charlie, what function or how is the whole code being constructed? how are you calling these? – Reigel Gallarde Jun 10 '17 at 11:38
