How to get user details for other parts of websites?

  • Hi Maja,

    If you can already enter shortcodes into the email template then you could probably create your own shortcodes to display the user info and insert them into the email template.

    You’d have to create the shortcode functions in your functions.php file in your theme folder. Here’s some info about creating shortcodes: WP Shortcode API on Tuts+

    You’ll want to pull the current user data in to your shortcode functions using get_currentuserinfo(). Here’s a post on how to bring the data values in: WordPress get_currentuserinfo() – www.ads-software.com

    As I don’t have specific information on what plugin you’re using for your rich text emails, I can’t say as it will process the shortcodes, but it’s a start!

    Good luck
