I figured out how to pull in the data from the custom user meta fields by ID. Here’s an example on how I pulled in a new meta field for Company Name.


// set this to whatever user's info you want to display on the page or remove it and send this value through the URL instead
$user_id = '1';
// set single argument to true
$single = true;
// get the company name and assign to a variable
$jam_get_company_name = get_user_meta( $user_id, 'company-name', $single );

Hello and thanks for the reply.

I tried using the type=”public” shortcode, but it was still showing an editable form for some reason. I didn’t want random visitors to the site to be able to edit profiles, only view them. I am able to do this now using code similar to the example code I posted above to pull the data and a custom template I am building to display that data.

Thanks!
Jack
