I realized what I was doing wrong – I was getting the entire get_user_meta() and passing all of it to a variable, then trying to access the custom key from there – instead of specifying the key like you did with get_user_meta( $user_id, ‘key’ ). that works much better.

Thanks!

Hi keesiemeijer, thanks for replying. Yes, I’m using the get_user_meta() function, and passing that to a variable. Both the function and the variable return the same result, I’m not sure what kind of syntax is being used there.

I’m also looking into storing the data in the WP Options table.

Thank you! That worked perfectly.
