Shortcode to Display User Meta Data (i.e. First Name)

Hi @themehelps – You can use this code snippet to enable the shortcode:

/**
 * Returns a user meta value
 * Usage [um_user user_id="" meta_key="" ] // leave user_id empty if you want to retrive the current user's meta value.
 * meta_key is the field name that you've set in the UM form builder
 * You can modify the return meta_value with filter hook 'um_user_shortcode_filter__{$meta_key}'
 */
function um_user_shortcode( $atts ) {
	$atts = extract( shortcode_atts( array(
		'user_id' => get_current_user_id(),
		'meta_key' => '',
	), $atts ) );
	
	if ( empty( $meta_key ) ) return;
	
	if( empty( $user_id ) ) $user_id = get_current_user_id(); 
    
    $meta_value = get_user_meta( $user_id, $meta_key, true );
    if( is_serialized( $meta_value ) ){
       $meta_value = unserialize( $meta_value );
    } 
    if( is_array( $meta_value ) ){
         $meta_value = implode(",",$meta_value );
    }  
    return apply_filters("um_user_shortcode_filter__{$meta_key}", $meta_value );
 
}
add_shortcode( 'um_user', 'um_user_shortcode' );

Hello,

Your snippet does not seem to work or I did something wrong,
I put it in the functions.php and it still display nothing for all those shortcodes :

[um_user meta_key=”name”] [um_user meta_key=”first-name”]

Thank you!

Edit : it works with : [um_user meta_key=”first_name”] !
