Simple Directory Questions…

In the free version, it requires a bit of coding as everyone wants to link to different places.

follow the ‘instructions’ link at
https://directories.wpusersplugin.com/simple-user-list/
goes to:

https://wpusersplugin.com/3422/link-from-user-directory-to-user-detail-or-profile/

the plus version offers a predefined linktype so on list 1 you can have users link to a detail page using list 2, but all in the same page – only meaningful for list 1 and on the front end.

Thanks @anmari! I’ll check it out. Do I need the plus version to have multiple search filters?

So, essentially what’s the big difference between list 1 and list 2? List 1 is detailed list, and list 2 is directory, I guess I’m not seeing the need for both?

The display name, for example, links to “…/memberdetails/?filter=1&ID=350” in your demo. What linktype did you use for that? It’s not working on my site and how do I configure what appears on that details page?

The display name link on the memberdetails page, goes to another page “…/users/tashaweber/” is that an author page?

Is there a way to configure it so we don’t have both?

Thanks,
Bob

No – not unless you want two views (eg list and detail page)

The display name, for example, links to “…/memberdetails/?filter=1&ID=350” in your demo. What linktype did you use for that? It’s not working on my site and how do I configure what appears on that details page?

inthat example bbpress forum user page – could be almost anything. see links above

Delete any lists you don’t want.

Thanks Anmari. I created an author template and have it showing up. Unfortunately, none of the usermeta is showing up on the page however. I’m using paidmembershipspro for my membership but their fields are saved as regular usermeta data but I just don’t know how to make it appear on the author template.

Thanks,
Bob

– should be the first entry

also please note that author templates are author templates and if there are no posts, they tend to 404 unless you delete the “if have posts” logic and just fetch the user data.

I may be in the wrong thread, but I can’t find an answer. I have loaded your directory plugin and Piklist. I have set up the relevant categories but I cannot display them in a ‘directory’ page. I have scoured your documentation for simple instructions of what to call the relevant page(s) or the short code(s) to use in the directory page to display listings. I know this might qualify as the dumbest question of the day, but how do I show the directory on my website please ?

Hi Peter – always create your own topic for your own question.

Re short code – did u see step 4 in
