   I need to get the role associated with a user -- not the "currently logged in user".

   I am using Buddypress (not that should matter to the nature of this question) and I am in the bp_members() loop.

   How can I retrieve the role of the user I am reporting on in the loop at any given time?

   Thanks.

   I am sure there are other ways to do this, but one that I know of is to pass the $userid of the member to the get_userdata() method.

   Example code here: https://gist.github.com/3138658
