Question

I have the following custom fields in my users profile. Something I’ve noticed is that these will output the currently logged in users fields. How do I get these fields to appear for the currently viewing user profile? I need to be able to see the selected user profiles data and not the logged in users data.

{{ user:your_address }}, {{ user:address_line3 }}, {{ user:state }}

You can pass a user id to the user plugin tags.

{{ user:your_address user_id="4" }}

Or us the profile tag if you have more than one tag.

{{ user:profile user_id="4" }}

{{ your_address }}
{{ address_line3 }}

{{ /user:profile }}

This is for PyroCMS version 2.1. If you have an older version you may need to update the user plugin.

From here: http://docs.pyrocms.com/2.1/manual/plugins/user

Edit

You can pass a variable to the user tags like so.

{{ user:your_address user_id="{{ user_id_var }}" }}

But you will need to set the id when you build your template in the controller, and pass the variable to the page somehow (via a URI segment?).

$this->template->user_id_var = $this->uri->segment(2);
