Hannah Hi there. Firstly, I love this plugin, it's great! Just a couple of questions regarding the user dashboard: 1. Using the shortcode [wpuf_dashboard], the dashboard displays with: 'Posts Created' first Then 'Author info' underneath. I would like to change these around so that author info is displayed at the top of the page with the posts created underneath it. Is there a way to do this? 2. The 'Author info' shows username, profile picture and biographical info. I have created some extra custom fields (text and image) in the registration form which I would also like to show here - please can you tell me how to do this? Thanks in advance, Hannah

For both of these, you’ve to edit the plugin.

1. In /class/frontend-dashboard.php, line 232, which reads $this->user_info();. You’ve to move this line to before this line: <?php if ( $dashboard_query->have_posts() ) { ?>.

2. In the same file, user_info() function, you’ve to print the meta keys like this: <?php echo get_user_meta( $userdata->ID, 'your_meta_key', true ); ?>

Hope that helps.

Hi Tareq, thanks for that.
1. yes, got that working, thank you!

However, because there’s more of it, the text now runs out of the first box and over the second. Is there a way to make the box size responsive to the amount of text within it so it adjusts accordingly?

2. yes, got that working for text. However, when I put in the meta key for an image section, instead of showing the image it just shows the image id number. is there a way round this?

Thanks for your help! Hannah

1. Umm…that’s a CSS issue. Adding this to your themes style.css should do.
[css]
.wpuf-author .wpuf-author-inside {
height: auto !important;
overflow: hidden;
}
[/css]

2. WPUF stores attachmend ID’s of uploaded images. So to show the actual image, here’s a code example:
[php]
$images = get_user_meta( $userdata->ID, ‘mey_key_name’, true );
$thumb = wp_get_attachment_image( $attachment_id, ‘thumbnail’ );
$full_size = wp_get_attachment_url( $attachment_id );
printf( ‘<a href="%s">%s</a>’, $full_size, $thumb );
[/php]

brilliant, thank you!
One more problem (I hope!). On the page displaying the wpuf dashboard, the sidebar is pushed down to the bottom of the page. I’ve checked and it’s definitely the wpuf dashboard which is causing it. How do I fix this?
Thank you!

Ok, just had time to try those out. The first one worked brilliantly. The second one is still showing the image id rather than the actual image. I added the code and changed only the meta kay name. Is that right? Should I have changed anything else? Sorry, I’m very new to this!
Thanks, Hannah

That’s right, you just need to change the meta key only.

Hmm, I wonder why it’s not working then? I’ll keep playing around with it and see.
Any ideas on the sidebar issue mentioned above?
Thanks! Hannah

ok, and just one more!
on the page above, when you press ‘edit’ next to a post, it takes you to the edit profile page rather than the post edit page.
Thanks in advance 🙂
