    Hello,

    Does usersWP have a function that I can use programmatically (in a snippet) to get and change fields of the user’s profile? A sort of geodir_get_post_meta but for user information rather than posts.

    Thanks 🙂

    Hi Alex,

    Can you give an example so that we can have more idea about what exactly you want here?

    What I understand is you want to get user’s profile fields programmatically and modify it. If so then you can use the function `uwp_get_usermeta_row($user_id)’ which will give all the form fields based on user ID you have passed. Let me know if this is what you want or something else.

    Regards,

    Great, thanks. Is there a way to get a specific field from the user meta? And is there a function that I can use to change the user meta?

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi Alex,

    You can use following function to change the user meta using user id and meta key:

    uwp_update_usermeta( $user_id, $key, $value )

    Also, to get specific field you can use the following function:

    uwp_get_usermeta( $user_id, $key, $default )

    Let me know if this works for you or not.

    Regards,
    Patrik
