Actually Txanny, I achieved this very thing. All I did was make a role called “ARTIST”, so this might help you for coding that out:

Check it out over at http://riptapparel.com/community http://riptapparel.com/artists

<?php $roles = array('artist');

		/* Loop through users to search for the admin and editor users. */
		foreach( $roles as $role )
		{
		  	// all users with artist role
			if($role == 'artist')
		  	{

			  	$this_role = "'[[:<:]]".$role."[[:>:]]'";
			  	$query = "SELECT * FROM $wpdb->users WHERE ID = ANY (SELECT user_id FROM $wpdb->usermeta WHERE meta_key = 'wp_capabilities' AND meta_value RLIKE $this_role) ORDER BY user_nicename ASC LIMIT 10000";
			  	$users_of_this_role = $wpdb->get_results($query);
			  	if ($users_of_this_role)
				{
			    	foreach($users_of_this_role as $user)
					{

						$curuser = get_userdata($user->ID);
				      	$author_post_url=get_author_posts_url($curuser->ID, $curuser->nicename);

						echo "<ul class='userList'>";
							echo "<li>";
								echo "<a href='/community/user/$curuser->nickname' title='.$curuser->display_name'>";
									echo get_avatar($curuser->user_email, '50', $avatar);
								echo '</a>';

								echo "<a href='/community/user/$curuser->nickname' title='.$curuser->display_name'>";
									echo "<p>$curuser->display_name</p>";
								echo '</a>';

								//echo '<p>'.$curuser->description.'</p>';

						echo '</li>';
						echo '</ul>';
				    }
			  	}
			}

		}
		?>

@jim de Groot

your code there (so far) helped me more than you ever know. With the combination of the USER COMMUNITY plugin where I can create my own roles, I can now use this to separate out the roles on different pages (ie members / artists)…

Amazing!! Thank you so much

I’d love to know this as well… I have actually gotten this to work on my site CssScoop.com .. but I had to do some major trickery. I used this:http://justintadlock.com/archives/2008/01/27/custom-fields-for-feeds-wordpress-plugin

I also just found this yet haven’t tried it yet: http://dodesign.us/blog/custom-field-images-in-wordpress-feeds/

If you find a nice solution, PLEASE by all means, let me know!

@txanny – Thank you for your reply. I never have seen the capsman plugin. I’m going to go try it out now! Thank you so much again for your responses.

I’m looking to show a BUY button on my site only on the most recent post (and the homepage, because that will be the most recent post anyways. I’m only showing one post at a time).

For posts that have been expired for 24 hours, the buy button needs to be hidden.

I think this is possible with the above, but I can’t get it to work.

could someone please help? Thank you so much!! I’m desperate since I have to launch this very soon! Thanks.

Got it figured out with the help of jford.

over on the wordpress 5 minute install page…. it tells you what files not to delete/overwrite.. well i tried this and it didn’t work..

so i basically overwrote everything in there (making backups of my wp-content folder first) and once i had uploaded all the files for WP 2.7, then i uploaded plugins folder, activated them, i then i uploaded my theme.

works now 🙂 hope it works for the next person. Thanks again JFord
