How can I display Role on Profile page as plain text?

[STEVE]

Hello,

I want to display the user’s Role on their profile page but I want it to be seen as un-editable text. I am using the following shortcode
[user-meta-field id=9] [user-meta-field-value id=9]
but when the Role is displayed it shows as a dropdown menu.
This is because in the Fields Editor when you create the “Role” field the “Role Selection Type” options are limited to:

• Dropdown
• Select One (radio)
• Hidden

My “Role” field is set to “Dropdown” and this is why the shortcode displays it in a Dropdown menu. If I switch the “Role Selection Type” to “Select One (radio)” then the shortcode displays all the available Roles as Radio buttons. And finally if I switch the “Role Selection Type” to “Hidden” then the shortcode doesn’t show anything because the Role is hidden.

I need a fourth option. I just want the name of the Role to be displayed as text that the user can’t interact with (no dropdown, no radio button).

Is this possible? How can I do this?

Thanks.
