    Actually, the PHP is in the shortcode – not the custom tab.

    For anyone else needing this, it IS crazy simple. I was trying to capture $uid through shortcode_atts, and making it too complicated.

    To pull in the user ID of the current profile – or any other page that includes the uid in the URL – add this line to your shortcode:
    $uid = $_GET[‘uid’];

    Then you can use $uid to pull any meta value you need from the WordPress database for that user.

    That was it! The “Root Relative” plugin that’s installed by default on new WordPress install by Liquid Web was the cause. Love the plugin – thank you so very much.

    Thank you for the quick reply! I’ve checked the settings, and under ‘Participant Record Page’ I have selected the page ‘Complete Your Registration.’ Here’s a copy/paste from the email: ‘You may complete your registration by visiting this private link at any time: /signup/complete-your-registration/?pid=xxxxx.’ (I’ve x’d out the pid, that came through correctly.) So it is pointing to the “Complete Your Registration’ page correctly, but it is missing the .com portion of the URL.

    I thought that maybe the subpage would be throwing it off, so I tested with a root level page, and got the same result. For some reason it doesn’t appear to be pulling the base URL.

    Any ideas?
