Simple & very useful extension
by francisgernet·6 years ago
This is a simple, but very useful extension.
It’s unfortunate that it no longer seems to be maintained and remains confidential.
Essential, I couldn’t do without it.

Great plugin
by mdietger·10 years ago
Good plugin. Does what it says.
What would make it a great plugin would be the support for the new wordpress REST api. Accessing the user data through the users endpoint a dedicated one would be great.
How to display the correct values in the frontend
by Albert·10 years ago
Took me a bit to get this out, since there is no help online.
I wrote a little function and pasted it into my functions.php:
function extra_user_info() {
global $current_user;
get_currentuserinfo();
echo 'Your extra user info is' . $current_user->PUT_YOU_ID_HERE ;
}
add_action ('NAME_OF_HOOK_WHERE_YOU_WANT_IT', 'extra_user_info', 20);Need Documentation but Great plugin!!
