Using the ewz-extra.txt

To allow EntryWizard to see the field, you need a php function that returns the field value when given the user_id as input.

The plugin you mention is a paid one, so I cannot look at the code. A very quick look at their website does not mention such a function.

I’d suggest you ask the developers if this function is available.

Thanks for taking the time to check this out.
Actually that plugin is available free.
We are having the issue of judges judging without knowing the level of the submitters.
We try adding to the submission layout a field of class, forcing them to enter their class. It worked somehow, but some members checked the wrong class.
So we passed that one.
The reason I did look into that one is because, CIMI User Extra Fields is no longer available.
Now searching under S2Member, I found a lot of choices, none were clear as to which one to use.
Can you help us is selecting the specific S2Member plugin, unless you have found a better one?

CIMI User Extra Fields is still working for us at the moment, but it’s probably not a good idea to install it now.

I’d still suggest asking the plugin authors for a “function that returns the field value when given the user_id as input.”.

(it would most likely need the field id as a second input)

Even if I could see the code, it would almost certainly be too time-consuming for me to figure out such a function.

Again I thank you for all the attention, You have done so much.
I got this response, I wonder if this could help us?
To display the user data on the site, please use the shortcode [prflxtrflds_user_data].

Also, it is possible to display data only for specific users. To do this, please enter the relevant user id to the shortcode. For example: [prflxtrflds_user_data user_id=3,1].

Not really, I’m afraid. EntryWizard needs a php function, not a shortcode.

It seems that is not possible to add fields to WP user table.
WP will not allowed.
Those other apps that add fields, do as as separate table.
They allow to show the data of those fields, but are not ex-tractable, so far as I can see.
I would love to be able have submissions be scored by comp type and member class.
Can we take a different approach?
Say I create an additional field in the layout, class or level.
How can I populated it? Other than having the user fill it at submission?
Josie so far you have made miracles with these apps.
Possibilities:
1 Have a table of users id or names and classes, stored as part of the Entry Wizard and make a choice of transfer after closing.
2 A way to update the class after closing/downloaded the csv file, then update the data back in the website, using that updated csv file.
3 ????? Hope you may have a 3rd.

What do you think?

Re above request I have setup a few camera club sites with entry Wizard and not one had a problem with their users putting in their club level. Are you members that _____ that they are not able to click a simple box stating their level, Joise has created a great program for clubs and has made it simple to setup and use, and people want changes that only they use for their club instead of adapting their club to Entry Wizard.

I know several clubs use a membership plugin like S2member, but that is far more than is needed for just this purpose.

Cimy User Extra Fields is still available, although it seems no longer to be maintained. So far as I know is still working, although there is always a very slight risk that it may fail after WordPress updates to a new version.

Since our club still uses Cimy User Extra Fields, I may have to look out for a replacement at some point. If I find one, I’ll post it here. But I’m afraid I’m not adding any more new features to EntryWizard.
