Printing Current User Name using PHP
-
I gave it my best try all day today to get this php code to print out the current user’s name at the top of my blog ~ very similar to the top line in the dashboard (Howdy, [User Name] | Profile | Log out).
I was able to get it to print out everything EXCEPT the name of the current user (It just prints “Howdy ” but no name. Also it doesn’t recognize my class that I am trying to add to the dividing “|”‘s. I just want to make them a different color using a class.
<span class="login_container"> <?php global $user_ID; if ($user_ID) { echo "Howdy "; echo $user_identity; echo '<class="login_light">' . " | "; } wp_register('<class="login">'); {echo " | ";} if($user_ID) { echo '<class="login"><a href="' . site_url('wp-login.php?action=logout', 'login') . '">' . __('Log Out', 'atahualpa') . '</a>'; } else { echo '<class="login"><a href="' . site_url('wp-login.php', 'login') . '">' . __('Log In', 'atahualpa') . '</a>'; } ?> </span>
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.
