• Hi everyone, I’m trying to create a simple plugin that access member data. I’m trying to use get_user_meta but nothing happens when I use this example:

    <?php
    $user_id = 9;
    $key = ‘last_name’;
    $single = true;
    $user_last = get_user_meta( $user_id, $key, $single );
    echo ‘<p>The ‘. $key . ‘ value for user id ‘ . $user_id . ‘ is: ‘ . $user_last . ‘</p>’;
    ?>

    My site is live so I’m testing using my email like this:

    function myFunction()
    {

    $user_id = 9;
    $key = ‘last_name’;
    $single = true;
    $user_last = get_user_meta( $user_id, $key, $single );
    echo ‘<p>The ‘. $key . ‘ value for user id ‘ . $user_id . ‘ is: ‘ . $user_last . ‘</p>’;

    $to=”[email protected]”;
    $subject=”Subject”;
    $message=”Message : “.$user_last;
    mail($to,$subject,$message);
    }

    add_action(‘wp_login’, ‘myFunction’);

    Do I need some global variable to gain access to ‘get_user_meta’?

    Thanks for any help.
