Display user role in profile

Hi @andreasml

Have you tried using the User Meta settings in the Profile form? You can use it to display the User’s role in the Meta section of the profile. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MQsUlfddeia4LHjgS6mPOOWdt1E1uV8g/view?usp=sharing

Go to WP Admin > Ultimate Member > Forms > Edit a Profile Form > see “User Meta” section. You will be able to select the “Role” field there to display.

Hi @champsupertramp

Thank you for your reply. It does help! However, it displays only the role of member and not the other roles of the user. For example the user may have two or three roles, i.e. member or a custom-made role, but it is displayed only the member role.
Any ideas to fix it?

Hi @andreasml

You can try this code snippet to display multiple roles in the user meta section:

add_filter("um_show_meta_item_html", function( $html, $key ){

    if( in_array( $key, ['role_radio','role_select'] ) ){
        // Get the user object.
        $user_id = um_user("ID");
        $roles = array();
        $user = new WP_User( $user_id );
        $arr_role_names = [];
        foreach( $user->roles as $role ){
            $arr_role_names[ ] = $role ? wp_roles()->get_names()[ $role ] : '';
        }

        return implode(", ", $arr_role_names );
    }

    return $html;
}, 10, 2);

Regards,

Thanks

Where should I add this code?

Hi @andreasml

You can add it to your theme’s functions.php file or use Code Snippets plugin.

Thanks @champsupertramp

Hi @champsupertramp

I just noticed that your code works if more than one roles exist on the same user. In this case, both roles are displayed in the user meta section. On the contrary, when the user has just one role nothing is displayed. I assume that the code needs some modification in order to cover these cases as well. Could you please provide this?

Update to the previous message:

When the user role is one of the default roles (Member, Subscriber or Admin), it is displayed even if it is the sole role of the user.
If the user role is a custom-made role (eg Author, Editor or Administrator), it is only displayed if the member has also one of the default roles (Member, Subscriber, or Admin), otherwise the user meta is left blank.

Hi @andreasml

You can try this code snippet. I’ve updated it:

add_filter("um_show_meta_item_html", function( $html, $key ){

    if( in_array( $key, ['role_radio','role_select'] ) ){
        // Get the user object.
        $user_id = um_user("ID");
        $roles = array();
        $user = new WP_User( $user_id );
        $arr_role_names = [];
        if( count(  $user->roles ) > 1 ){ 
           foreach( $user->roles as $role ){
            $arr_role_names[ ] = $role ? wp_roles()->get_names()[ $role ] : '';
           }
        }else{
            $role = $user->roles[0];
            $arr_role_names[ ] = $role ? wp_roles()->get_names()[ $role ] : '';
        }

        return implode(", ", $arr_role_names );
    }

    return $html;
}, 10, 2);

Many thanks for your efforts. Unfortunately, it stills does not work. It only displays the roles when one of the role is either member, or subscriber or Admin.

Pity

Hi @andreasml

Could you please try this one?

add_filter("um_show_meta_item_html", function( $html, $key ){

    if( in_array( $key, ['role_radio','role_select'] ) ){
        // Get the user object.
        $user_id = um_user("ID");
        $roles = array();
        $user = new WP_User( $user_id );
        $arr_role_names = [];
        if( count(  $user->roles ) > 1 ){ 
           foreach( $user->roles as $role ){
            $arr_role_names[ ] = $role ? wp_roles()->get_names()[ $role ] : '';
           }
        }else{
            $role = um_user("role");
            $arr_role_names[ ] = $role ? wp_roles()->get_names()[ $role ] : '';
        }

        return implode(", ", $arr_role_names );
    }

    return $html;
}, 10, 2);
