Read a tutorial here: https://pippinsplugins.com/add-user-id-column-to-the-wordpress-users-table/
But filter wpmu_users_columns or the list will appear only in the site users rather than network users list table.
Something like the following should be close.
<?php
add_filter('wpmu_users_columns', 'ds_add_user_rpr_school_year');
function ds_add_user_rpr_school_year($columns) {
$columns['rpr_school_year'] = 'School Year';
return $columns;
}
add_action('manage_users_custom_column', 'ds_show_user_rpr_school_year', 10, 3);
function ds_show_user_rpr_school_year($value, $column_name, $user_id) {
if ( 'rpr_school_year' == $column_name )
return get_user_meta( $user_id, 'rpr_school_year', true );
return $value;
}
?>
I use the following snippet to list the UserID and it works fine:
<?php
add_filter('wpmu_users_columns', 'ds_add_user_id_column');
function ds_add_user_id_column($columns) {
$columns['user_id'] = 'User ID';
return $columns;
}
add_action('manage_users_custom_column', 'ds_show_user_id_column_content', 10, 3);
function ds_show_user_id_column_content($value, $column_name, $user_id) {
$user = get_userdata( $user_id );
if ( 'user_id' == $column_name )
return $user_id;
return $value;
}
?>
Have not figured out sortable, yet.
Sortable:
add_filter('manage_users-network_sortable_columns', 'ds_column_sortable');
function ds_column_sortable($columns) {
$columns['user_id'] = 'id';
return $columns;
}

thank you david… I had seen your tutorial but being a such a bear with a little brain I couldn’t translate it to wpmu_users_column

quick question david – the sort code doesnt seem to sort them on the meta value – any advice?
It is a trick; filter the ‘request’ or add_action to ‘pre_user_query’ to make sure the request is ‘heard’ when you click on it.
I found the method below works reliably for me
http://www.host1plus.com/tutorials/cms-tutorials/wordpress/other-wordpress/how-to-make-extra-columns-in-user-php-sortable/
Look in the following code/paste for where I have placed your rpr_school_year key.
Should be a clue to get it working in your own code snippet in there somewhere.

david thank you very much
as a total newbie I have one last question…
rpr_school_year has four possible entries from a drop down list (9,10,11,12, teacher)
where do i enter that data within the code so that school year column sorts by each type? thanks so much

david when I do add your code – the sort this doesnt work and it also leaves my last login column next to it empty….
What plugin are you using for last_login? Sounds like a column conflict.
add_action('manage_users_custom_column', 'ds_show_user_id_column_content', 10, 3);
That’s probably clashing.
kgh79,
Use pastebin to show me what you have so far. I have a network with grades 9-12 students, too, so I can fiddle away till I get it right here and share what I have back to you.
