 * Great plugin, what I cannot do is to include current user info in the query, 
   it does no accept none variable about it. How to filter by current user info?
 * Thanks in advance

 * Not completely sure what you want to do. I am guessing you want to filter/select
   on specific user meta data. You can create a new view that includes a query that
   joins wp_users and wp_user_meta and select the desired rows.

 * Too late i know but you can use execute a PHP snippet (using another plugin) 
   which gets the current user and then calls do_shortcode(dbview…). I have updated
   the FAQ.
