Private Non-edit Display of User Profile for only the User

[STEVE]

I need to be able to show my users a view of their profile where all of the data is displayed as text and not in fields, and then give them the option to clink a link to edit the profile and then be taken to the version of the profile where all the data is in fields and can then be edited. By the way, I would prefer if the display version (non-edit version) is also not public or viewable by other members. How can I do this?

Thanks

Hi Steve,

For this, you can create two profile page. In one profile page (non-editable), use HTML field to show user’s date. You can use placeholder (e.g. %user_email%) to show user’s data.
On other profile page, you can use regular editable field.

Thanks.

How exactly do I “use HTML field to show user’s data”?

Thanks.

[STEVE]

A little help please. 🙂

Hi,

Make HTML field from Field Editor section of UMP. Write HTML code in Default Value box of the field. You can use placeholder to show user’s data.Like, if you want to show user email then use placeholder “%user_email%”. You can show any field’s data by using placeholder of the field.

These data will be shown as text and it will be non-editable.

Thanks.

Thanks. This works. But the Field name is not Left aligned as I selected. It only shows as a Top position. How can I correct this?

Also do you know what is the place holder to show a user’s role?

Finally, is there a list of place holders?

Thanks.

Also how can I do this with the Avatar or other image fields? I tried using this <img src="/%user_avatar%" /> in the default value of the HTML field, but it didn’t work.

Hi,

Placeholder to show user’s role is “%role%”.

User Placeholder:
%ID%, %user_login%, %user_email%, %password%, %display_name%, %first_name%, %last_name%.

Custom Field’s placeholder:
%your_custom_user_meta_key%

placeholder for avatar “%avatar%”. Just use this placeholder like others. Nothing else.

Thanks.

What about the field name alignment problem I mentioned? The Left alignment is not working.

[STEVE]

Placeholder for user’s role, “%role%”, works. Thank you. Is there anyway to get it to capitalize the first letter of the role? Just for a more polished presentation?

Placeholder for user’s role, “%avatar%”, works. Thank you.

Placeholder for Custom Field’s, %your_custom_user_meta_key%, doesn’t work if the custom Field Type is “File Upload” and the file uploaded is an image. Instead it only shows the image’s path. For example, /uploads/files/Logo_494x164.png

Anyway to fix this?

Thanks.

Don’t forget me guys. Still have unanswered questions in posts # 6178 & 6179 above.

Thanks. 🙂

[STEVE]

You can ignore my question in post # 6178 above. I have gotten around this by using the Title Position setting of “Placeholder” in User Meta Pro’s Field Editor. Since this setting eliminates the Title all together I can then create my own Title header for the field and place it where ever I want via standard HTML.

So now I only need attention to my questions remaining in post # 6179.

Thanks. 🙂

[STEVE]

OK guys.. I know I’m a pain in the @$$, but I have good news! LoL.

You can officially ignore me now because I have found workarounds for all the issues I had in question for the above posts.

Thanks for all your help!
