Shortcode for User fields

    I have a custom user field that I created under user profiles that has an attachment (example: the field label is resume_word)

    I wanted to use a shortcode to pull the custom field, if there is an attachment , over to a page with the shortcode. I want the users resume file to display

    I keep getting an error when trying and it just displays “array”..

    I’m just learning and wasn’t sure exactly how to do this if it has an attachment and it being a custom field I entered for the user profile.

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    Currently, the plugin doesn’t have much support for user fields that are stored as arrays. I can see if adding some extra parameters will make it possible. Could you tell me the code you’re using to display the user field? Are you using the [field] or [user] shortcode?

    Hi, I am using the user shortcode:

    [user resume_word_format]

    Thanks

    In the newest plugin update, I added a way to look inside a user field stored as array. Can you tell me the output of the following code?

    [array user_field=resume_word_format debug=true]

    Hmm..I don’t see any attachment ID there.

    Does this display anything?

    [array user_field=resume_word debug=true]

    Hopefully there’s some data there that we can use to find the attachment.

    Also, what theme/plugin are you using to create this user field?

    Hi
    I’m using Xtheme and for the user field I’m using the Pods plugin. I looked to make sure my field name is correct and also I was able to attach a file under the new field on the actual user’s profile so I know its functioning…hmmmmm

    [array user_field=resume_word debug=true] looks like this:

    Ah, OK – so there’s the attachment data. Hopefully these fields are sufficient for your purpose.

    The following should display the attachment title as a link:

    [array user_field=resume_word_format]
  <a href="[field guid]">[field post_title]</a>
[/array]
