Description
This plugin allows one to personalise content for a logged in user. It uses shortcode type functionality in any email template or page or post. It extract stored details of the viewer or reader. A default text can be specified for situations where there are no stored details.
It also allows you to customise the email address that wordpress uses to send the emails, and the sender name. This can allow you to offer a more customised service for example with a more helpful unsubscribe link. Or you could create your own “profile” page for logged in users only.

Installation
- In the wordpress admin plugin section of your site, click “Add New” or download and Unzip the file into your wordpress plugins folder.

- In the plugin settings page, define text to use if no user details found, Optionally redefine the wordpress sender name and email.
- Add one or more [user] to a page, post or email template such as in Subscribe2, Post Notification or Your Responder.
- Test by either: logging in as someone and browsing to the page or post; or using S2 or YR to send a broadcast email to test email addresses only (such as yourself!)
How to use
Simplest: Put [user] in your page, post, or email template. eg: Welcome [user]
Note: at this stage, only the simpler meta values should be used. later more complex data structures stored in the meta values may be accessible as in the amr_users listing tool. See also https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/get_userdata for info.
Examples:
- [user] will display display name
- [user user_login]
- [user user_email]
- [user display_name]
- [user user_nicename]
- [user first_name last_name]
- [user description]
- [user roles]
- [user yourtableprefix_capabilities]
- [user message=”Dear %s,” display_name ]
- [user message=”You registered on %s as a %s ” user_registered wp_capabilities ]
- [user message=”A url like %s is valuable. ” user_url]
- [user message=”You said you came from %s ” state] – a custom register plus field

2.5

- Fixed html comment on no data
- Fixed shortcode with multiple attributes problem
- Updated some help info
2.4
- cleaned up debug messages. Admin user only can do ID=x on a personalised page to get a dump of user data available to check meta fields etc.
- Added some links to make it easer for folks to find info and support.
2.3
- changed straight parameter eg: [user user_registered] to show the meta key if there is no data for it, so that it is clear when testing what data is “not showing”. If you would rather have no output at all, then use the message feature rather. [user message=”You registered on %s” user_registered]
- message altered to still return no message if not all the variables passed to it are there. (eg: check if user_registered is returned for the meta_key user_registered, and display nothing
- check for blank or empty strings in meta key (ie: meta key exists, but it is “empty”) and treat as though meta key does not exist.
- You can now put the personalised details in a text widget. I added a text widget filter as per this suggestion: https://hackadelic.com/the-right-way-to-shortcodize-wordpress-widgets. Note that this will enable all shortcodes for the text widget. Please test thoroughly as there is some concern about the order of plugins loading.
- Added ability to convert a user meta data that is an array of values to a comma separated string (EG: roles). Since capabilties only have boolean values, and it is the key that is useful, if you ask for capabilties, it will return a string of capabilities keys for which the value=’1′.

- added rss feed updates to keep people up to date on developments

- Added access to more user data
