Thanks Mike, but we have multiple users on our site and we have a custom front end editor.

We have written the code ourselves to upload images. Trying to reduce the number of plugins we use 😉

Actually it does, I worked it out. This returns the file name.

$sql_author_image = "SELECT meta_value FROM wp_usermeta WHERE user_id =  $user_id AND meta_key = 'author_image' ";

$author_image = $wpdb->get_var($sql_author_image);

Then all you have to do is create an add_shortcode function.

Email sent. Thanks for your help!
