User listing

  • Hey!

    Got the premium version of your plugin.
    I’ve been trying to make the user listing a little bit more viewable instead of just having it like it is now. More put in a table so to speak.
    The problem is that when adding it into a table it is impossible to make the sorting right.

    Right now the only thing to make things right is to do like below.
    [user-list display_field=”Firstname,Lastname,Street,Contact”]

    I want it to be more like,
    <tabled>
    <tr>
    <td>[user-list display_field=”Firstname”]</td>
    <td>[user-list display_field=”Lastname”]</td>
    <td>[user-list display_field=”Street”]</td>
    <td>[user-list display_field=”Contact”]</td>
    </tr>

    When doing this manually the firstname doesn’t match the correct lastname or anything else. It’s not sorted the same way. Is there a fix for this?
    Been asking about this before and you told me that this will be fixed in future updates. Now it’s, well .. about 6 months ago! ?? .. the future is here!

    Hi Martin,

    I think it’s important to first mention that this would be a feature suggestion. It isn’t an issue that needs to be fixed. The plugin and the features that you mention work just as intended. We have to weigh if and when a new feature gets implemented based on many factors, including complexity of adding it, level of interest, making sure to take care of issues/bugs first, etc.

    That being said, adding it the way you did will, as you discovered, likely not work as you want, because, when each separate instance of the user is queried and then displayed, it shows in a different order based on the values of the specific field being queried.

    It’s unlikely that we’ll implement some sort of table to display the information. What we can look into doing is creating an option in the user-list shortcode that lets you choose the orderby (e.g. name, date, etc.) and order (i.e. ascending or descending) attributes of the query. I don’t know if or when we might be able to do something like this, but we’ll discuss it.
