You’ll need to pull entries based on the user id – I’m working on a solution for this right now on a client site and will post back when I get it working. I’m planning to pass the user id through wpfp_get_users_favorites and go from there.
Don’t add that to user-edit.php though, you need to make an author page template and add it there for people to see on the front-end.
Hi ckhicks,
Did you manage to find a solution to this problem?
I’m interested in that too!
This query works for me…
You would need to change the meta_value to the current users id
<?php // Display user favourite courses
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'post',
'meta_key' => 'wpfp_favorites',
'meta_value' => $auth_id,
'numberposts' => 20,
'orderby' => 'meta_value',
'order' => 'DESC'
);
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>
<h5><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="Click to view <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h5>
<?php endwhile; else: ?>
<p>No favourite courses just yet.</p>
<?php endif; wp_reset_query();?>
I’m confused…
If I place the above code in the author.php page I get a list of favorite posts even if the user has not yet added any favorites.
You write: “you would need to change the meta_value to the current users id”
Can you clear this a little bit fo a non expert WP user like me?
I simply want to show in the author.php his/her favorites that must be also seen by anyone visiting that page…
Thanks!
