Getting multiple user_id …
-
First I would like to say I am very new to php, so please take it easy on me.
I’m first going to explain what I am trying to do in hopes that this explains to you what I did with this code and why it does not work for me.
I have been asked to build a guild website (gaming) for an upcoming Massively multi-player online game (Star Wars the old Republic). With that said we have a need for a members page, that lists these key items:
- Character Name
Character level
Class
Profession
etc.
I found an example on how to list member names (character names) like this in a table:
<?php $blogusers = get_users('blog_id=1&orderby=nicename'); foreach ($blogusers as $user) { echo '<li>' . $user->user_nicename . '</li>'; } ?>I then found a tutorial on how to add custom user fields to the profile page and save them to user_meta. This was great. the problem I am having is that I created a field for “class” but it seems the only way to display this information is to use
get_meta_datawhich requires me to enter auser_idwhich only returns one class. I then found a few examples that I put together (not 100% sure how this works) and came up with the following:<?php $query = "SELECT ID FROM {$wpdb->users}"; $user_ids = $wpdb->get_col($query, 0); $key = 'class'; $single = true; $user_char_name = get_user_meta( $user_ids, $key, $single ); foreach ($user_ids as $user_ID){ echo '<li>' . $user_char_name . '</li>';} ?>The only problem with this is that it returns the class of the first user_id for everybody.
Here is a link to the wesbsite so you can see what it is doing.

I need it to return the class depending on what was typed and saved in the custom profile field box.
Example:
Character 1 : Bounty Hunter
Character 2: Imperial Agent
Character 3: Sith Warrior
character 4: Sith InquisitorDepending on which one they type in the box and save, is the one I want to display in the list being populated to a table. As of right now user_id 1 is a Bounty Hunter and in each line of the list for every member I get the class of Bounty Hunter.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask.
Thanks in advance.
