Hi Jason,

Thanks for the reply. I’m a bit of a noob with PHP etc. Are you able to shed any light on code?

The unique field ID is sector and it’s a multi select drop down. I just can’t seem to find code that’ll work. I’ve found code for checkboxes but trying to ‘adapt’ it simply didn’t work.

Any help on this is very much appreciated!

Sorry to post here again but I can’t seem to find a solution. I tried the following code:

$fields = get_s2member_custom_fields();
print_r($fields["sector"]["config"]); # The Unique Field ID you configured with s2Member.


$fields = get_s2member_custom_fields(10);
echo $fields["sector"]["user_value"]; # The Unique Field ID you configured with s2Member.
print_r($fields["sector"]["config"]); # The Unique Field ID you configured with s2Member.

This simply returns the entire contents of the array and not the selected values.

I really can’t see why this is such an issue. It seems a shame that the multi select isn’t covered in the documentation like the standard custom fields

Any help is much appreciated

Thanks Eduan,

I did as you said, swapping the custom_field to mine but to no avail:

<?php
// Get the user ID by URL
$userID = $_GET['author'];

// Get user's info
$user_info = get_userdata($userID);

// Get field's value
// Replace `custom_field` with the field's Unique ID that you gave it
$userCustomField = $user_info->sector;

// Get field's value
// Replace `custom_field` with the field's Unique ID that you gave it
$userCustomField = do_shortcode('[s2Get user_field="sector" /]');
?>

I’ll play around with this but at the mo, it simply returns nothing

Thanks though

Hi Eduan

Thanks for getting back to me. I think the confusion may come from I’ve ended up with 2 S2Memer accounts. One I initially setup to enquire and one I then had to create for the company in order to purchase the s2member pro licence. I’m more than happy to send through any information to validate our account, simply let me know what you need and who I need to send it to.

As for the query above, I’ve created an additional custom registration field which is a Select Menu with multi-option which I did from here:

General > Profile Fields/options > Custom Registration Fields

However, I can’t work out how I display that information to a user? At the moment, I’m using the following:

#get the user ID from the URL
$theUserID = $_GET["author"];

echo get_user_field('company', $theUserID); 

Which displays the info I need for one of my other fields, I just can’t work out how to display the multi-options in the select?

Any help is much appreciated
