php if username is role

Chris Haugen,

You need to check user role who have ‘artist’ role and then you need to act on some video loop stuff.

Here’s the solution:

$user = get_user_by('login', $username );

if ( !empty( $user->roles ) && is_array( $user->roles ) ) {
        foreach ( $user->roles as $role ){             
           if($role == 'artist')
              media files loop
        }
}

get_user_by() is return user data of passed ‘username’.

Thanks!
