Hi,

I hope you can help. I see the same thread over a year ago by somebody else. I like the plugin a lot. But I have an issue.

I have created a new column and pressed save, but the “User Meta Field” didn’t exist – it didn’t say error or anything. So it has created a column, but there is no red cross to delete it. And you cannot hide it in the Screen Options. If you unselect it, it doesn’t disappear either before or after you press Apply.

I have since gone into Custom Fields on WP and duplicated a working column and added the missing “User Meta Field”. And this column works properly. It has the red cross.

But, I am stuck with the original column I made and cannot find a way to delete it.

Is there any way in Theme Editor or another way to find it to delete? Because in the plugin setting it only shows an option to create a new one, and of course the red cross for existing one’s where this one doesn’t have it.

This is probably what happened to in the other thread which someone made a year ago.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Does anyone know if there is a way with “one click” to open a list of my users sorted from newest to oldest? (it takes 3 clicks now and all the populates are time consuming – workflow: click all users, click to sort on reg date, click to sort on reg date the other way).

Of course it would be cool if WP could just remember my sort preference. But if not, does anyone know if there is a filter available that I can use to sort whenever this list is opened?

The new version 1.0.5 now supports the apply_filter functionality before displaying the column value for custom columns.

First, add a custom column and give it a name and user meta field. This value in the “user meta field” will be used as a column id (see example below).

An example to show you the use case (replace custom_cal with your user meta field value and update your code logic):

add_filter( 'muc_filter_custom_col_val', 'muc_filter_col_val_callback', 10, 3 );
function muc_filter_col_val_callback($custom_col_val, $column_id, $uid){
	if( $column_id == 'custom_cal' ){
		// logic to calculate user data
		return 'User ID - ' . $uid;
	}
}

Is there a way to get a column to display each user’s percentage of profile completion? It is calculated in a buddyboss file called class-bp-xprofile-profile-completion-widget.php.

Is there a way to change the order in which the columns are displayed? For example, the default order of columns is (from left to right): Username | Name | Email | Role | Posts | Registration Date

Is there a way to re-order the columns to show as follows?

Registration Date | Username | Name | Email | Role | Posts |

Great plugin! Seems to be what I just need. However where would I find a list (maybe including descriptions) of all user meta fields that are available?

I would like to add a column that shows how many comments (or how many WP posts of any type) an user has created.

When a non-admin user is logged in and views the member list, they can see the new column I’ve added, but they can *also* delete it with the little red X. This delete happens for all users.

Please set it up so that only admins can manage the columns – both adding *and* deleting.

I would like to add a column that shows the users website URL (Doesn’t have to be clickable) but when I search for URL in the User Meta Fields I see no results.

I would also like to be able to add a column for fields added with the Advanced Custom Fields WordPress plugin but these fields aren’t showing either, although this isn’t important as long as I can add their website as a column.

I have created columns associated with a field which contains URL and the values are currently displayed as text – https://www.domain.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=…etc.

Is there a way to make these URLs to be displayed as actual clickable links?

Updated and now it’s throwing this error:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/customer/www/domain/public_html/wp-content/plugins/manage-user-columns/manage-user-columns.php on line 109

I removed my domain name for this post. All else is the actual warning.

Or just tell me what it needs to be and I’ll updated it myself. Thaks.

Theres no red X next to column name so i cant remove columns

Hi there – many thanks for creating your plugin.

On our site, we run a Membership programme (based on Memberpress) which allows creating custom fields for customers. The custom fields have a slug each and I can add a new column with your plugin using the slug of such a custom field just fine.

What doesn’t work, though, is the sorting feature. When I try to sort by the new column, the backend seems to re-sort the users table alphabetically based on the usernames but not on the content of the custom field (which is a simple text field).

Any idea why sorting doesn’t work in this case?

I am trying to add columns to my user section. I really need to add a column for a user’s cell phone. Your plugin requires a user meta field.

What do I enter here?

Hi, thanks for this great addon. One issue I have though is that sorting on registration date does not appear to work correctly. It sorts dates quite randomly. Is this a known issue or is this a setting on my side?

1. is this plugin being managed still, before I bother with it and
2. is there an option or method to make the custom values searchable so if I have colors and put blue in the user search it’ll show all the users assigned the value blue?

thanks
