FacetWP – User Post Type 0.7.3

FacetWP – User Post Type

This plugin gives you the ability to attach users to a post type, allowing you to build user listings and filter users in the same manner as you would any other post type.

How it works

This plugin will create a new hidden post type called upt user, as well as a post for each individual user.

Setup

Click the “Sync now” button once you’ve navigated to the Settings menu and selected User Post Type.

You may also transfer more data into the postmeta table, as was just demonstrated for you above. This is not necessary to show fields; rather, meta query is the sole place where it can be beneficial.

Here is a list of the dropdown options and the meta query keys that relate to them:

Option                                                                  Meta Key
User ID                                                                       ID
User Login                                                        user_login
User Email                                                        user_email
User URL                                                          user_url
Registration Date                                            user_registered
User Status                                                       user_status
Display Name                                                 display_name
Roles                                                                         roles
Usermeta field                        meta-zipcode (keys are prefixed with meta-)
BuddyPress field                      bp-123 (field IDs are prefixed with bp-)

Displaying users

Use the WP Query function (not the WP User Query function) in the following manner to show a list of users:

Displaying a subset of users

Choose “Roles” from the dropdown menu on the settings page, then “Sync,” so that only administrators are seen. After that, make use of the field included within meta query:

The same thing applies with various roles, such as administrators and editors in this case:

Displaying user fields

UPT supports WP user functions; just replace $user_id with UPT()->get_user_id().

Outside of The Loop, pass in the post ID like so:
