You can easily create a WordPress account programmatically by utilizing WordPress wp_create_user function.
The wp_create_user function allows you to insert a new user into the WordPress database by parsing 3 (three) parameters through to the function itself. It uses the $wpdb class to escape the variable values, preparing it for insertion into the database.
See the following PHP codes to learn how to use it.
$user_id = username_exists($user_name);
if (!$user_id) {
//Generate a random password
$random_password = wp_generate_password(12, false);
//Create the account
$user_id = wp_create_user($user_name, $random_password, $user_email);
}else{
//Username already exists
//Do or display something
}
